Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AITC polled 49,586 votes, 2.8× the 17,548-vote margin.

    49,586 ÷ 17,548 = 2.8

  2. The top two polled 73.4% of votes; the other 11 candidates 26.0% between them.

    (91,088 + 73,540) ÷ 2,24,268 = 73.4% · 58,281 ÷ 2,24,268 = 26.0%

  3. Turnout of 92.6% was 0.8 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    92.6 − 93.4 = −0.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 13.8 pp in 2021 to 7.8 pp.

    7.8 − 13.8 = −6.0 pp

  5. Subrata Maitra (Kanchan) also won in 2021.

    2021 winner name = 2026 winner name
