Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 90.5% of votes; the other 6 candidates 8.7% between them.

    (1,24,537 + 74,464) ÷ 2,19,936 = 90.5% · 19,236 ÷ 2,19,936 = 8.7%
  2. Turnout of 92.6% was 0.8 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    92.6 − 93.4 = −0.8
  3. Falguni Singhababu, the 2024 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2024 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
