Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 40,346 votes, 1.4× the 28,011-vote margin.

    40,346 ÷ 28,011 = 1.4

  2. The top two polled 76.6% of votes; the other 12 candidates 22.5% between them.

    (90,277 + 62,266) ÷ 1,99,125 = 76.6% · 44,858 ÷ 1,99,125 = 22.5%

  3. Turnout of 91.3% was 2.1 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    91.3 − 93.4 = −2.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 19.6 pp in 2021 to 14.1 pp.

    14.1 − 19.6 = −5.5 pp

  5. Azad Minhajul Arfin also won in 2021.
