Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed CPI(M) polled 19,334 votes, 1.9× the 10,185-vote margin.
19,334 ÷ 10,185 = 1.9
The top two polled 83.1% of votes; the other 7 candidates 16.4% between them.
(1,05,234 + 95,049) ÷ 2,40,916 = 83.1% · 39,493 ÷ 2,40,916 = 16.4%
Turnout of 94.8% was 1.4 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).
94.8 − 93.4 = +1.4
The margin narrowed from 10.7 pp in 2021 to 4.2 pp.
4.2 − 10.7 = −6.5 pp
