Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AIADMK polled 54,099 votes, 15× the 3,548-vote margin.

    54,099 ÷ 3,548 = 15.2

  2. The top two polled 60.5% of votes; the other 10 candidates 39.1% between them.

    (59,161 + 55,613) ÷ 1,89,753 = 60.5% · 74,269 ÷ 1,89,753 = 39.1%

  3. Turnout of 80.6% was 6.0 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).

    80.6 − 86.6 = −6.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 7.3 pp in 2021 to 1.9 pp.

    1.9 − 7.3 = −5.4 pp

  5. DMK held the seat it won in 2021.
