Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 1,39,919 votes, 1.8× the 76,853-vote margin.

    1,39,919 ÷ 76,853 = 1.8

  2. The top two polled 87.6% of votes; the other 10 candidates 11.6% between them.

    (7,02,744 + 6,25,891) ÷ 15,17,511 = 87.6% · 1,75,524 ÷ 15,17,511 = 11.6%

  3. Turnout of 81.7% was 0.5 pp above the state's median seat (81.2%).

    81.7 − 81.2 = +0.5

  4. The margin widened from 5.0 pp in 2019 to 5.1 pp.

    5.1 − 5.0 = +0.1 pp

  5. Locket Chatterjee, the 2019 winner, finished second in 2024.

    2019 winner name = 2024 runner-up name
