Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.1% of votes; the other 13 candidates 9.1% between them.

    (6,44,738 + 5,31,120) ÷ 13,04,827 = 90.1% · 1,19,066 ÷ 13,04,827 = 9.1%

  2. Turnout of 79.9% was 12.6 pp above the state's median seat (67.3%).

    79.9 − 67.3 = +12.6

  3. The margin widened from 3.0 pp in 2019 to 8.7 pp.

    8.7 − 3.0 = +5.7 pp

  4. Nakul Kamalnath, the 2019 winner, finished second in 2024.

    2019 winner name = 2024 runner-up name
