Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 86.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 12.1% between them.

    (1,20,548 + 79,883) ÷ 2,30,686 = 86.9% · 27,887 ÷ 2,30,686 = 12.1%

  2. Turnout of 95.8% was 2.4 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    95.8 − 93.4 = +2.4

  3. The margin widened from 16.4 pp in 2021 to 17.6 pp.

    17.6 − 16.4 = +1.2 pp
