Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 1,63,210 votes, 1.1× the 1,50,302-vote margin.

    1,63,210 ÷ 1,50,302 = 1.1

  2. The top two polled 80.5% of votes; the other 10 candidates 18.8% between them.

    (4,43,628 + 2,93,326) ÷ 9,15,691 = 80.5% · 1,72,191 ÷ 9,15,691 = 18.8%

  3. Turnout of 69.0% was 3.9 pp below the state's median seat (73.0%).

    69.0 − 73.0 = −3.9

  4. The margin widened from 15.4 pp in 2019 to 16.4 pp.

    16.4 − 15.4 = +1.0 pp

  5. N K Premachandran also won in 2019.

    2019 winner name = 2024 winner name
