[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed PMK polled 59,791 votes, 25× the 2,387-vote margin.

    59,791 ÷ 2,387 = 25.0
  2. The top two polled 65.2% of votes; the other 16 candidates 34.5% between them.

    (69,351 + 66,964) ÷ 2,09,186 = 65.2% · 72,116 ÷ 2,09,186 = 34.5%
  3. Turnout of 86.6% matched the state's median seat.

    86.6 − 86.6 = 0.0
  4. The margin widened from 0.4 pp in 2021 to 1.1 pp.

    1.1 − 0.4 = +0.7 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 2021, DMDK in 2026.
