Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.7% of votes; the other 11 candidates 5.0% between them.

    (1,04,516 + 92,901) ÷ 2,10,607 = 93.7% · 10,435 ÷ 2,10,607 = 5.0%

  2. Turnout of 87.8% was 5.6 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    87.8 − 93.4 = −5.6

  3. The margin narrowed from 11.1 pp in 2021 to 5.5 pp.

    5.5 − 11.1 = −5.6 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: AITC in 2021, BJP in 2026.
