Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 89.0% of votes; the other 7 candidates 9.8% between them.

    (1,25,419 + 84,109) ÷ 2,35,362 = 89.0% · 23,148 ÷ 2,35,362 = 9.8%
  2. Turnout of 92.6% was 0.8 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    92.6 − 93.4 = −0.8
  3. The margin widened from 1.5 pp in 2021 to 17.6 pp.

    17.6 − 1.5 = +16.1 pp
