Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 88.7% of votes; the other 10 candidates 10.7% between them.

    (1,22,171 + 87,613) ÷ 2,36,603 = 88.7% · 25,276 ÷ 2,36,603 = 10.7%

  2. Turnout of 93.1% was 0.3 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    93.1 − 93.4 = −0.3

  3. The margin widened from 10.7 pp in 2021 to 14.6 pp.

    14.6 − 10.7 = +3.9 pp
