Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed DMK polled 68,045 votes, 31× the 2,189-vote margin.

    68,045 ÷ 2,189 = 31.1

  2. The top two polled 68.4% of votes; the other 11 candidates 31.1% between them.

    (87,772 + 85,583) ÷ 2,53,592 = 68.4% · 78,987 ÷ 2,53,592 = 31.1%

  3. Turnout of 92.5% was 5.9 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    92.5 − 86.6 = +5.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 11.0 pp in 2021 to 0.9 pp.

    0.9 − 11.0 = −10.1 pp

  5. AIADMK held the seat it won in 2021.
