Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 2,63,273 votes, 3.9× the 68,197-vote margin.

    2,63,273 ÷ 68,197 = 3.9

  2. The top two polled 77.0% of votes; the other 18 candidates 22.9% between them.

    (5,60,897 + 4,92,700) ÷ 13,68,471 = 77.0% · 3,12,934 ÷ 13,68,471 = 22.9%

  3. Turnout of 76.4% was 4.8 pp below the state's median seat (81.2%).

    76.4 − 81.2 = −4.8

  4. The margin widened from 4.7 pp in 2019 to 5.0 pp.

    5.0 − 4.7 = +0.3 pp

  5. BJP held the seat it won in 2019.
