Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 95.4% of votes; the other 2 candidates 4.6% between them.

    (2,67,155 + 77,087) ÷ 3,60,809 = 95.4% · 16,567 ÷ 3,60,809 = 4.6%
  2. Turnout of 55.0% was 0.1 pp above the state's median seat (54.9%).

    55.0 − 54.9 = +0.1
  3. The margin widened from 26.6 pp in 1971 to 52.7 pp.

    52.7 − 26.6 = +26.1 pp
