Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed TVK polled 60,826 votes, 2.6× the 23,807-vote margin.

    60,826 ÷ 23,807 = 2.6

  2. The top two polled 66.1% of votes; the other 13 candidates 33.5% between them.

    (88,291 + 64,484) ÷ 2,30,980 = 66.1% · 77,272 ÷ 2,30,980 = 33.5%

  3. Turnout of 88.1% was 1.5 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    88.1 − 86.6 = +1.5

  4. The margin widened from 6.4 pp in 2021 to 10.3 pp.

    10.3 − 6.4 = +3.9 pp

  5. Udhayakumar.R.B, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
