Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.6% of votes; the other 7 candidates 5.5% between them.

    (5,67,092 + 5,17,229) ÷ 11,71,546 = 92.6% · 64,286 ÷ 11,71,546 = 5.5%

  2. Turnout of 63.9% was 6.7 pp above the state's median seat (57.2%).

    63.9 − 57.2 = +6.7

  3. The margin narrowed from 5.1 pp in 2019 to 4.3 pp.

    4.3 − 5.1 = −0.8 pp

  4. Dulal Chandra Goswami, the 2019 winner, finished second in 2024.

    2019 winner name = 2024 runner-up name
