[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 37,286 votes, 1.3× the 29,386-vote margin.

    37,286 ÷ 29,386 = 1.3
  2. The top two polled 75.2% of votes; the other 3 candidates 24.0% between them.

    (76,073 + 46,687) ÷ 1,63,151 = 75.2% · 39,159 ÷ 1,63,151 = 24.0%
  3. Turnout of 79.4% matched the state's median seat.

    79.4 − 79.4 = 0.0
  4. U R Pradeep also won in 2024.

    2024 winner name = 2026 winner name
