Winner vote count (109,388) and runner-up count (53,807) confirmed by BSS (state news agency) and cross-checked against Wikipedia (English). A secondary aggregator (search snippet) erroneously reported 101,388 for Abu Sufian; BSS is the primary source and is used here. Vote shares (66.37%/32.64%) and margin (33.73 pp) are from Wikipedia's Chittagong-9 article; they are computed against total valid votes (~164,815 implied), which is lower than the 174,944 total votes cast figure (the latter includes invalid ballots and votes for the other 8 candidates who contested). Voter turnout of 42.02% per Wikipedia against 413,363 registered voters. Constituency covers city corporation wards 15-23 and 31-35, encompassing Kotwali thana core (Khatunganj market, Chittagong Medical College Hospital, Chittagong College, Haji Muhammad Mohsin College). Boundaries last redrawn 2013-14 when Sandwip Upazila was renumbered, shifting what was Chittagong-8 area into the current Chittagong-9 boundary. No EC boundary change in 2024. Runner-up AKM Fazlul Haque (Prof. Dr., Jamaat city organisational secretary) had his EC nomination cancelled in January 2026 over dual-citizenship documentation; BSS and Wikipedia both record him receiving 53,807 votes, confirming his candidacy was ultimately reinstated (likely via High Court). Abu Sufian (born 1 October 1964, age 61) is a first-term MP with no prior Jatiya Sangsad service; he contested Chittagong-8 by-polls in 2019 under BNP boycott conditions and did not win.
