[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed TVK polled 3,611 votes, 3.8× the 952-vote margin.

    3,611 ÷ 952 = 3.8
  2. The top two polled 67.1% of votes; the other 9 candidates 32.2% between them.

    (8,382 + 7,430) ÷ 23,560 = 67.1% · 7,586 ÷ 23,560 = 32.2%
  3. The margin held at 4.0 pp, as in 2021.

    4.0 − 4.0 = 0.0 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: IND in 2021, AINRC in 2026.
