Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 88.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 10.1% between them.

    (86,521 + 69,249) ÷ 1,75,209 = 88.9% · 17,720 ÷ 1,75,209 = 10.1%

  2. Turnout of 82.6% was 1.7 pp below the state's median seat (84.3%).

    82.6 − 84.3 = −1.7

  3. The margin narrowed from 23.6 pp in 2021 to 9.9 pp.

    9.9 − 23.6 = −13.7 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2021, RD in 2026.
