Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 61.7% of votes; the other 18 candidates 37.5% between them.

    (4,27,677 + 2,22,013) ÷ 10,53,419 = 61.7% · 3,95,540 ÷ 10,53,419 = 37.5%

  2. Turnout of 64.5% was 6.5 pp below the state's median seat (71.0%).

    64.5 − 71.0 = −6.5

  3. The margin narrowed from 30.6 pp in 2019 to 19.5 pp.

    19.5 − 30.6 = −11.1 pp

  4. Karti P Chidambaram also won in 2019.

    2019 winner name = 2024 winner name
