Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 88.2% of votes; the other 5 candidates 11.1% between them.

    (89,551 + 44,870) ÷ 1,52,386 = 88.2% · 16,860 ÷ 1,52,386 = 11.1%

  2. Turnout of 77.4% was 2.0 pp below the state's median seat (79.4%).

    77.4 − 79.4 = −2.0

  3. The margin widened from 16.2 pp in 2021 to 29.3 pp.

    29.3 − 16.2 = +13.1 pp

  4. Anoop Jacob also won in 2021.
