Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.7% of votes; the other 9 candidates 3.5% between them.

    (6,17,104 + 2,96,793) ÷ 9,64,609 = 94.7% · 34,141 ÷ 9,64,609 = 3.5%

  2. Turnout of 62.9% was 0.7 pp below the state's median seat (63.6%).

    62.9 − 63.6 = −0.7

  3. The margin widened from 13.2 pp in 2009 to 33.2 pp.

    33.2 − 13.2 = +20.0 pp
