Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.8% of votes; the other 5 candidates 8.5% between them.

    (1,26,241 + 91,874) ÷ 2,40,253 = 90.8% · 20,476 ÷ 2,40,253 = 8.5%

  2. Turnout of 94.0% was 0.6 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    94.0 − 93.4 = +0.6

  3. The margin widened from 5.3 pp in 2021 to 14.3 pp.

    14.3 − 5.3 = +9.0 pp

  4. Harakali Protiher, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
