Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 79.8% of votes; the other 13 candidates 19.8% between them.

    (1,00,536 + 62,805) ÷ 2,04,712 = 79.8% · 40,518 ÷ 2,04,712 = 19.8%

  2. Turnout of 81.4% was 5.2 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).

    81.4 − 86.6 = −5.2

  3. The margin narrowed from 26.9 pp in 2021 to 18.4 pp.

    18.4 − 26.9 = −8.5 pp

  4. P. Geetha Jeevan, the 2021 winner, finished second in 2026.

    2021 winner name = 2026 runner-up name
