Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 54,193 votes, 7.7× the 7,034-vote margin.

    54,193 ÷ 7,034 = 7.7
  2. The top two polled 68.0% of votes; the other 13 candidates 31.7% between them.

    (68,873 + 61,839) ÷ 1,92,119 = 68.0% · 60,888 ÷ 1,92,119 = 31.7%
  3. Turnout of 91.3% was 4.7 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    91.3 − 86.6 = +4.7
  4. The margin narrowed from 12.0 pp in 2021 to 3.7 pp.

    3.7 − 12.0 = −8.3 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: AIADMK in 2021, DMK in 2026.
