Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 57,730 votes, 4.6× the 12,459-vote margin.

    57,730 ÷ 12,459 = 4.6

  2. The top two polled 69.8% of votes; the other 11 candidates 29.8% between them.

    (89,137 + 76,678) ÷ 2,37,576 = 69.8% · 70,808 ÷ 2,37,576 = 29.8%

  3. Turnout of 75.8% was 10.8 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).

    75.8 − 86.6 = −10.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 23.7 pp in 2021 to 5.2 pp.

    5.2 − 23.7 = −18.5 pp

  5. Katharbatcha Muthuramalingam also won in 2021.

    2021 winner name = 2026 winner name
