Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 24,982 votes, 1.4× the 18,038-vote margin.

    24,982 ÷ 18,038 = 1.4
  2. The top two polled 78.9% of votes; the other 11 candidates 20.6% between them.

    (72,853 + 54,815) ÷ 1,61,801 = 78.9% · 33,380 ÷ 1,61,801 = 20.6%
  3. Turnout of 72.8% was 13.8 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).

    72.8 − 86.6 = −13.8
  4. The margin narrowed from 14.8 pp in 2021 to 11.2 pp.

    11.2 − 14.8 = −3.6 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: DMK in 2021, TVK in 2026.
