Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed PMK polled 18,185 votes, 1.7× the 10,716-vote margin.

    18,185 ÷ 10,716 = 1.7
  2. The top two polled 82.0% of votes; the other 13 candidates 18.0% between them.

    (1,01,001 + 90,285) ÷ 2,33,186 = 82.0% · 41,900 ÷ 2,33,186 = 18.0%
  3. Turnout of 77.7% was 1.2 pp above the state's median seat (76.5%).

    77.7 − 76.5 = +1.2
  4. The margin narrowed from 23.8 pp in 2011 to 4.6 pp.

    4.6 − 23.8 = −19.2 pp
  5. AIADMK held the seat it won in 2011.
