Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.6% of votes; the other 3 candidates 5.3% between them.

    (1,34,498 + 84,916) ÷ 2,34,321 = 93.6% · 12,486 ÷ 2,34,321 = 5.3%

  2. Turnout of 93.5% was 0.1 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    93.5 − 93.4 = +0.1

  3. The margin widened from 1.9 pp in 2021 to 21.2 pp.

    21.2 − 1.9 = +19.3 pp

  4. BJP held the seat it won in 2021.
