Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed PMK polled 61,444 votes, 271× the 227-vote margin.

    61,444 ÷ 227 = 270.7

  2. NOTA polled 798 votes, 3.5× the winning margin of 227.

    798 ÷ 227 = 3.5

  3. The top two polled 64.1% of votes; the other 13 candidates 35.5% between them.

    (67,961 + 67,734) ÷ 2,11,743 = 64.1% · 75,250 ÷ 2,11,743 = 35.5%

  4. Turnout of 90.2% was 3.6 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    90.2 − 86.6 = +3.6

  5. The margin narrowed from 4.8 pp in 2021 to 0.1 pp.

    0.1 − 4.8 = −4.7 pp

  6. The seat changed hands: AIADMK in 2021, TVK in 2026.
