Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 83.1% of votes; the other 7 candidates 16.3% between them.

    (1,14,443 + 82,922) ÷ 2,37,534 = 83.1% · 38,727 ÷ 2,37,534 = 16.3%

  2. Turnout of 95.1% was 1.7 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    95.1 − 93.4 = +1.7

  3. The margin widened from 1.1 pp in 2021 to 13.3 pp.

    13.3 − 1.1 = +12.2 pp
