Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 74.1% of votes; the other 7 candidates 25.0% between them.

    (4,65,044 + 2,56,087) ÷ 9,73,011 = 74.1% · 2,42,962 ÷ 9,73,011 = 25.0%

  2. Turnout of 72.3% was 1.3 pp above the state's median seat (71.0%).

    72.3 − 71.0 = +1.3

  3. The margin widened from 21.1 pp in 2019 to 21.5 pp.

    21.5 − 21.1 = +0.4 pp

  4. CPI held the seat it won in 2019.
