Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 1,05,359 votes, 3.2× the 32,778-vote margin.

    1,05,359 ÷ 32,778 = 3.2

  2. The top two polled 86.4% of votes; the other 11 candidates 11.8% between them.

    (6,41,813 + 6,09,035) ÷ 14,47,674 = 86.4% · 1,70,617 ÷ 14,47,674 = 11.8%

  3. Turnout of 81.3% was 0.1 pp above the state's median seat (81.2%).

    81.3 − 81.2 = +0.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 12.7 pp in 2019 to 2.3 pp.

    2.3 − 12.7 = −10.4 pp

  5. Dr. Subhas Sarkar, the 2019 winner, finished second in 2024.

    2019 winner name = 2024 runner-up name
