Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed AISF polled 34,584 votes, 3.0× the 11,454-vote margin.

    34,584 ÷ 11,454 = 3.0
  2. The top two polled 77.8% of votes; the other 7 candidates 21.2% between them.

    (89,241 + 77,787) ÷ 2,14,650 = 77.8% · 45,574 ÷ 2,14,650 = 21.2%
  3. Turnout of 91.8% was 1.6 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    91.8 − 93.4 = −1.6
  4. The margin narrowed from 25.4 pp in 2021 to 5.3 pp.

    5.3 − 25.4 = −20.1 pp
  5. AITC held the seat it won in 2021.
