Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 32,477 votes, 1.5× the 22,368-vote margin.

    32,477 ÷ 22,368 = 1.5

  2. The top two polled 80.2% of votes; the other 13 candidates 19.5% between them.

    (1,06,240 + 83,872) ÷ 2,37,183 = 80.2% · 46,259 ÷ 2,37,183 = 19.5%

  3. Turnout of 90.3% was 3.7 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    90.3 − 86.6 = +3.7

  4. The margin narrowed from 59.4 pp in 2021 to 9.4 pp.

    9.4 − 59.4 = −50.0 pp
