[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed TVK polled 60,684 votes, 7.8× the 7,798-vote margin.

    60,684 ÷ 7,798 = 7.8
  2. The top two polled 59.1% of votes; the other 11 candidates 40.4% between them.

    (69,170 + 61,372) ÷ 2,20,857 = 59.1% · 89,333 ÷ 2,20,857 = 40.4%
  3. Turnout of 86.1% was 0.5 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).

    86.1 − 86.6 = −0.5
  4. The margin widened from 1.8 pp in 2021 to 3.5 pp.

    3.5 − 1.8 = +1.7 pp
  5. Paul Manoj Pandian also won in 2021.
