[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed TVK polled 6,248 votes, 3.2× the 1,970-vote margin.

    6,248 ÷ 1,970 = 3.2

  2. The top two polled 81.3% of votes; the other 10 candidates 18.1% between them.

    (16,970 + 15,000) ÷ 39,346 = 81.3% · 7,110 ÷ 39,346 = 18.1%

  3. The margin narrowed from 20.0 pp in 2021 to 5.0 pp.

    5.0 − 20.0 = −15.0 pp

  4. R.Siva, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
