Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 74.2% of votes; the other 4 candidates 24.7% between them.

    (5,71,078 + 1,99,168) ÷ 10,37,911 = 74.2% · 2,56,657 ÷ 10,37,911 = 24.7%

  2. Turnout of 74.1% was 3.8 pp below the state's median seat (77.9%).

    74.1 − 77.9 = −3.8

  3. The margin widened from 19.4 pp in 2019 to 35.8 pp.

    35.8 − 19.4 = +16.4 pp

  4. Vincent H. Pala, the 2019 winner, finished second in 2024.

    2019 winner name = 2024 runner-up name
