Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 85.0% of votes; the other 6 candidates 14.3% between them.

    (1,48,687 + 56,733) ÷ 2,41,664 = 85.0% · 34,620 ÷ 2,41,664 = 14.3%

  2. Turnout of 97.3% was 3.9 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    97.3 − 93.4 = +3.9

  3. The margin widened from 23.0 pp in 2021 to 38.1 pp.

    38.1 − 23.0 = +15.1 pp

  4. AITC held the seat it won in 2021.
