Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.7% of votes; the other 6 candidates 2.6% between them.

    (1,38,255 + 1,20,808) ÷ 2,67,925 = 96.7% · 7,048 ÷ 2,67,925 = 2.6%

  2. Turnout of 96.0% was 2.6 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    96.0 − 93.4 = +2.6

  3. The margin widened from 0.0 pp in 2021 to 6.5 pp.

    6.5 − 0.0 = +6.5 pp

  4. BJP held the seat it won in 2021.
