Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 67.7% of votes; the other 7 candidates 32.3% between them.

    (2,62,545 + 80,453) ÷ 5,06,653 = 67.7% · 1,63,655 ÷ 5,06,653 = 32.3%

  2. Turnout of 44.3% was 10.2 pp below the state's median seat (54.5%).

    44.3 − 54.5 = −10.2

  3. The margin widened from 13.2 pp in 1996 to 35.9 pp.

    35.9 − 13.2 = +22.7 pp
