Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 61,055 votes, 20× the 2,982-vote margin.

    61,055 ÷ 2,982 = 20.5
  2. The top two polled 67.5% of votes; the other 13 candidates 32.2% between them.

    (73,181 + 70,199) ÷ 2,12,534 = 67.5% · 68,530 ÷ 2,12,534 = 32.2%
  3. Turnout of 87.4% was 0.8 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    87.4 − 86.6 = +0.8
  4. The margin narrowed from 2.6 pp in 2021 to 1.4 pp.

    1.4 − 2.6 = −1.2 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: AIADMK in 2021, IUML in 2026.
