Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 18,537 votes, 1.1× the 16,830-vote margin.

    18,537 ÷ 16,830 = 1.1
  2. The top two polled 84.8% of votes; the other 3 candidates 14.6% between them.

    (63,416 + 46,586) ÷ 1,29,690 = 84.8% · 18,973 ÷ 1,29,690 = 14.6%
  3. Turnout of 78.4% was 1.0 pp below the state's median seat (79.4%).

    78.4 − 79.4 = −1.0
  4. The margin widened from 1.6 pp in 2021 to 13.0 pp.

    13.0 − 1.6 = +11.4 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2021, INC in 2026.
