Ranked 15th and earning 42,213 votes, Aurhel Alana became both the most-voted and the highest-ranked Trainee or Academy member, surpassing Viona Fadrin (14,566), who finished 16th in 2019. However, Viona's 16th place finish was enough to place her as a senbatsu, while Aurhel's 15th was not.
Adeline Wijaya became the first candidate to be ranked having been unnamed in the first two preliminary results since 2017.
Members with all-time high rank after this election (ever ranked at least twice) were Feni Fitriyanti and Angelina Christy.
Member with all-time low rank after this election (ever ranked at least twice) was Helisma Putri.
