Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.7% of votes; the other 3 candidates 7.3% between them.

    (63,079 + 46,807) ÷ 1,18,561 = 92.7% · 8,675 ÷ 1,18,561 = 7.3%

  2. Turnout of 80.9% was 3.0 pp below the state's median seat (83.9%).

    80.9 − 83.9 = −3.0

  3. The margin narrowed from 21.4 pp in 2011 to 13.7 pp.

    13.7 − 21.4 = −7.7 pp

  4. Aroti Hazarika Kachari, the 2011 winner, finished second in 2016.

    2011 winner name = 2016 runner-up name
