[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 12,129 votes, 2.5× the 4,760-vote margin.

    12,129 ÷ 4,760 = 2.5
  2. The top two polled 92.5% of votes; the other 9 candidates 7.0% between them.

    (1,09,373 + 1,04,613) ÷ 2,31,303 = 92.5% · 16,152 ÷ 2,31,303 = 7.0%
  3. Turnout of 95.2% was 1.8 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    95.2 − 93.4 = +1.8
  4. The margin narrowed from 11.6 pp in 2021 to 2.1 pp.

    2.1 − 11.6 = −9.5 pp
  5. Manturam Pakhira, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
