Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.2% of votes; the other 12 candidates 9.0% between them.

    (1,28,970 + 93,188) ÷ 2,46,393 = 90.2% · 22,285 ÷ 2,46,393 = 9.0%

  2. Turnout of 93.7% was 0.3 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    93.7 − 93.4 = +0.3

  3. The margin widened from 11.4 pp in 2021 to 14.5 pp.

    14.5 − 11.4 = +3.1 pp

  4. Arundhuti Maitra(Lovely), the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
