Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 8.0% between them.

    (84,495 + 59,933) ÷ 1,58,972 = 90.9% · 12,699 ÷ 1,58,972 = 8.0%

  2. Turnout of 82.9% was 1.4 pp below the state's median seat (84.3%).

    82.9 − 84.3 = −1.4

  3. The margin widened from 4.8 pp in 2021 to 15.5 pp.

    15.5 − 4.8 = +10.7 pp

  4. BJP held the seat it won in 2021.
