Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 3,651 votes, 2.6× the 1,413-vote margin.

    3,651 ÷ 1,413 = 2.6

  2. The top two polled 96.8% of votes; the other 17 candidates 3.2% between them.

    (2,83,232 + 2,81,819) ÷ 5,83,682 = 96.8% · 18,631 ÷ 5,83,682 = 3.2%

  3. Turnout of 68.7% was 11.6 pp above the state's median seat (57.1%).

    68.7 − 57.1 = +11.6

  4. The margin narrowed from 4.9 pp in 1980 to 0.2 pp.

    0.2 − 4.9 = −4.7 pp

  5. Tapeshwar Singh also won in 1980.

    1980 winner name = 1984 winner name
