Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 74.9% of votes; the other 21 candidates 24.5% between them.

    (1,33,611 + 78,918) ÷ 2,83,677 = 74.9% · 69,546 ÷ 2,83,677 = 24.5%

  2. Turnout of 83.7% was 2.9 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).

    83.7 − 86.6 = −2.9

  3. The margin widened from 14.2 pp in 2021 to 19.3 pp.

    19.3 − 14.2 = +5.1 pp
