Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 94,311 votes, 2.0× the 47,896-vote margin.

    94,311 ÷ 47,896 = 2.0

  2. The top two polled 82.8% of votes; the other 9 candidates 17.2% between them.

    (2,74,889 + 2,26,993) ÷ 6,06,110 = 82.8% · 1,04,228 ÷ 6,06,110 = 17.2%

  3. Turnout of 63.4% was 1.3 pp below the state's median seat (64.7%).

    63.4 − 64.7 = −1.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.7 pp in 1996 to 7.9 pp.

    7.9 − 8.7 = −0.8 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 1996.
