Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 13,526 votes, 1.3× the 10,494-vote margin.

    13,526 ÷ 10,494 = 1.3

  2. The top two polled 90.7% of votes; the other 6 candidates 8.1% between them.

    (1,10,640 + 1,00,146) ÷ 2,32,345 = 90.7% · 18,779 ÷ 2,32,345 = 8.1%

  3. Turnout of 94.1% was 0.7 pp above the state's median seat (93.4%).

    94.1 − 93.4 = +0.7

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.7 pp in 2021 to 4.5 pp.

    4.5 − 8.7 = −4.2 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: AITC in 2021, BJP in 2026.
