[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 39,414 votes, 2.0× the 19,869-vote margin.

    39,414 ÷ 19,869 = 2.0
  2. The top two polled 78.5% of votes; the other 13 candidates 20.8% between them.

    (96,260 + 76,391) ÷ 2,19,973 = 78.5% · 45,675 ÷ 2,19,973 = 20.8%
  3. Turnout of 94.3% was 0.9 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    94.3 − 93.4 = +0.9
  4. The margin narrowed from 17.4 pp in 2021 to 9.0 pp.

    9.0 − 17.4 = −8.4 pp
  5. Goutam Paul, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
