Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.5% of votes; the other 5 candidates 7.9% between them.

    (1,10,118 + 96,180) ÷ 2,25,363 = 91.5% · 17,864 ÷ 2,25,363 = 7.9%

  2. Turnout of 95.1% was 1.7 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    95.1 − 93.4 = +1.7

  3. The margin narrowed from 16.5 pp in 2021 to 6.2 pp.

    6.2 − 16.5 = −10.3 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: AITC in 2021, BJP in 2026.
