Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 47,100 votes, 6.6× the 7,131-vote margin.

    47,100 ÷ 7,131 = 6.6

  2. The top two polled 72.1% of votes; the other 14 candidates 27.6% between them.

    (74,102 + 66,971) ÷ 1,95,584 = 72.1% · 54,043 ÷ 1,95,584 = 27.6%

  3. Turnout of 91.0% was 4.4 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    91.0 − 86.6 = +4.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 11.5 pp in 2021 to 3.7 pp.

    3.7 − 11.5 = −7.8 pp

  5. Vilwanathan. A.C. also won in 2021.
