Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed DMK polled 62,452 votes, 219× the 285-vote margin.

    62,452 ÷ 285 = 219.1

  2. NOTA polled 500 votes, 1.8× the winning margin of 285.

    500 ÷ 285 = 1.8

  3. The top two polled 67.1% of votes; the other 13 candidates 32.7% between them.

    (73,033 + 72,748) ÷ 2,17,318 = 67.1% · 71,037 ÷ 2,17,318 = 32.7%

  4. Turnout of 89.2% was 2.6 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    89.2 − 86.6 = +2.6

  5. The margin narrowed from 30.7 pp in 2021 to 0.1 pp.

    0.1 − 30.7 = −30.6 pp

  6. The seat changed hands: DMK in 2021, AIADMK in 2026.
