Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.0% of votes; the other 4 candidates 5.3% between them.

    (1,32,856 + 1,17,613) ÷ 2,66,475 = 94.0% · 14,085 ÷ 2,66,475 = 5.3%

  2. Turnout of 94.7% was 1.3 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    94.7 − 93.4 = +1.3

  3. The margin narrowed from 13.2 pp in 2021 to 5.7 pp.

    5.7 − 13.2 = −7.5 pp

  4. Srikanta Mahata, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
