Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 52,922 votes, 3.7× the 14,116-vote margin.

    52,922 ÷ 14,116 = 3.7
  2. The top two polled 69.8% of votes; the other 12 candidates 29.9% between them.

    (79,951 + 65,835) ÷ 2,08,944 = 69.8% · 62,411 ÷ 2,08,944 = 29.9%
  3. Turnout of 81.0% was 5.6 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).

    81.0 − 86.6 = −5.6
  4. The margin widened from 5.4 pp in 2021 to 6.8 pp.

    6.8 − 5.4 = +1.4 pp
  5. DMK held the seat it won in 2021.
