Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 2,36,490 votes, 2.0× the 1,18,068-vote margin.

    2,36,490 ÷ 1,18,068 = 2.0

  2. The top two polled 74.2% of votes; the other 35 candidates 25.0% between them.

    (5,68,200 + 4,50,132) ÷ 13,72,833 = 74.2% · 3,42,713 ÷ 13,72,833 = 25.0%

  3. Turnout of 65.2% was 5.8 pp below the state's median seat (71.0%).

    65.2 − 71.0 = −5.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 14.3 pp in 2019 to 8.6 pp.

    8.6 − 14.3 = −5.7 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2019, DMK in 2024.
