Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 69.3% of votes; the other 14 candidates 29.4% between them.

    (4,73,212 + 2,32,627) ÷ 10,18,906 = 69.3% · 3,00,067 ÷ 10,18,906 = 29.4%

  2. Turnout of 71.3% was 0.3 pp above the state's median seat (71.0%).

    71.3 − 71.0 = +0.3

  3. The margin widened from 20.4 pp in 2019 to 23.6 pp.

    23.6 − 20.4 = +3.2 pp

  4. Raja A also won in 2019.

    2019 winner name = 2024 winner name
