Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 88.5% of votes; the other 4 candidates 10.9% between them.

    (66,112 + 50,464) ÷ 1,31,761 = 88.5% · 14,404 ÷ 1,31,761 = 10.9%

  2. Turnout of 81.2% was 1.8 pp above the state's median seat (79.4%).

    81.2 − 79.4 = +1.8

  3. The margin widened from 6.3 pp in 2021 to 11.9 pp.

    11.9 − 6.3 = +5.6 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2021, INC in 2026.
