Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.7% of votes; the other 8 candidates 7.2% between them.

    (1,18,421 + 83,370) ÷ 2,19,946 = 91.7% · 15,781 ÷ 2,19,946 = 7.2%

  2. Turnout of 92.4% was 1.0 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    92.4 − 93.4 = −1.0

  3. The margin widened from 0.2 pp in 2021 to 15.9 pp.

    15.9 − 0.2 = +15.7 pp
