Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.1% of votes; the other 7 candidates 7.3% between them.

    (1,46,435 + 87,159) ÷ 2,53,551 = 92.1% · 18,487 ÷ 2,53,551 = 7.3%

  2. Turnout of 96.3% was 2.9 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    96.3 − 93.4 = +2.9

  3. The margin widened from 20.8 pp in 2021 to 23.4 pp.

    23.4 − 20.8 = +2.6 pp

  4. Ganesh Chandra Mondal also won in 2021.
