Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 15,032 votes, 2.9× the 5,233-vote margin.

    15,032 ÷ 5,233 = 2.9

  2. The top two polled 85.6% of votes; the other 4 candidates 13.8% between them.

    (50,590 + 45,357) ÷ 1,12,135 = 85.6% · 15,521 ÷ 1,12,135 = 13.8%

  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 narrowed from 6.8 pp in 2021 to 4.7 pp.

    4.7 − 6.8 = −2.1 pp

  5. Adv. A. Raja, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
