Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed TVK polled 55,291 votes, 3.8× the 14,404-vote margin.

    55,291 ÷ 14,404 = 3.8
  2. The top two polled 67.1% of votes; the other 11 candidates 32.5% between them.

    (73,167 + 58,763) ÷ 1,96,679 = 67.1% · 64,018 ÷ 1,96,679 = 32.5%
  3. Turnout of 89.8% was 3.2 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    89.8 − 86.6 = +3.2
  4. The margin widened from 4.0 pp in 2021 to 7.3 pp.

    7.3 − 4.0 = +3.3 pp
  5. Nallathambi. A also won in 2021.
