Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 67,789 votes, 5.8× the 11,710-vote margin.

    67,789 ÷ 11,710 = 5.8

  2. The top two polled 70.2% of votes; the other 3 candidates 29.1% between them.

    (99,950 + 88,240) ÷ 2,67,917 = 70.2% · 78,010 ÷ 2,67,917 = 29.1%

  3. Turnout of 87.0% was 0.4 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    87.0 − 86.6 = +0.4

  4. The margin widened from 0.5 pp in 2021 to 4.4 pp.

    4.4 − 0.5 = +3.9 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: AIADMK in 2021, TVK in 2026.
