Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.4% of votes; the other 6 candidates 8.9% between them.

    (1,31,632 + 46,305) ÷ 1,96,885 = 90.4% · 17,569 ÷ 1,96,885 = 8.9%

  2. Turnout of 82.1% was 2.7 pp above the state's median seat (79.4%).

    82.1 − 79.4 = +2.7

  3. The margin widened from 21.9 pp in 2021 to 43.3 pp.

    43.3 − 21.9 = +21.4 pp
