Tamil Nadu’s Tirupattur constituency delivers an extremely close result, with a TVK candidate narrowly defeating a DMK minister by one vote. Multiple reports state that R. Seenivasa Sethupathy of the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (TVK) finishes with 83,375 votes, while DMK minister K. R. Periyakaruppan receives 83,374. The one-vote margin follows a prolonged counting process. One outlet reports that the final outcome is confirmed after re-verification of postal ballots, indicating that electoral procedures were followed to reconcile the tight lead. The result underscores how a very small number of votes can determine the winner in a constituency. Both sources agree on the candidates involved, the constituency name, and the final vote counts, leaving no discrepancy in the margin or tally. The final result is presented as an outcome of the full counting and verification steps undertaken during the election count.
