Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 83.9% of votes; the other 8 candidates 15.7% between them.

    (1,12,138 + 83,885) ÷ 2,33,588 = 83.9% · 36,643 ÷ 2,33,588 = 15.7%

  2. Turnout of 92.2% was 1.2 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    92.2 − 93.4 = −1.2

  3. The margin widened from 3.2 pp in 2021 to 12.1 pp.

    12.1 − 3.2 = +8.9 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: AITC in 2021, BJP in 2026.
