Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 2,77,802 votes, 6.6× the 42,341-vote margin.

    2,77,802 ÷ 42,341 = 6.6

  2. The top two polled 62.0% of votes; the other 13 candidates 37.7% between them.

    (3,94,702 + 3,52,361) ÷ 12,05,863 = 62.0% · 4,54,015 ÷ 12,05,863 = 37.7%

  3. Turnout of 84.3% was 5.4 pp above the state's median seat (79.0%).

    84.3 − 79.0 = +5.4

  4. The margin widened from 3.4 pp in 2009 to 3.5 pp.

    3.5 − 3.4 = +0.1 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 2009, AIUDF in 2014.
