Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed DMK polled 54,087 votes, 7.3× the 7,396-vote margin.

    54,087 ÷ 7,396 = 7.3

  2. The top two polled 69.0% of votes; the other 12 candidates 30.3% between them.

    (75,577 + 68,181) ÷ 2,08,323 = 69.0% · 63,156 ÷ 2,08,323 = 30.3%

  3. Turnout of 92.7% was 6.1 pp above the state's median seat (86.6%).

    92.7 − 86.6 = +6.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 11.3 pp in 2021 to 3.6 pp.

    3.6 − 11.3 = −7.7 pp

  5. Karuppanan. K.C also won in 2021.
