[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed TVK polled 5,906 votes, 2.5× the 2,371-vote margin.

    5,906 ÷ 2,371 = 2.5
  2. The top two polled 75.4% of votes; the other 12 candidates 23.6% between them.

    (12,945 + 10,574) ÷ 31,199 = 75.4% · 7,372 ÷ 31,199 = 23.6%
  3. The margin narrowed from 14.4 pp in 2021 to 7.6 pp.

    7.6 − 14.4 = −6.8 pp
  4. L. Sambath, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
