Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 17,669 votes, 1.0× the 16,980-vote margin.

    17,669 ÷ 16,980 = 1.0

  2. The top two polled 90.2% of votes; the other 3 candidates 9.5% between them.

    (94,804 + 77,824) ÷ 1,91,315 = 90.2% · 18,171 ÷ 1,91,315 = 9.5%

  3. Turnout of 83.4% was 4.0 pp above the state's median seat (79.4%).

    83.4 − 79.4 = +4.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 11.2 pp in 2021 to 8.9 pp.

    8.9 − 11.2 = −2.3 pp

  5. Adv. K.M. Sachindev, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
