Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.5% of votes; the other 3 candidates 5.5% between them.

    (72,889 + 47,780) ÷ 1,27,689 = 94.5% · 6,992 ÷ 1,27,689 = 5.5%

  2. Turnout of 79.7% was 3.5 pp below the state's median seat (83.2%).

    79.7 − 83.2 = −3.5

  3. The margin widened from 18.4 pp in 2001 to 19.7 pp.

    19.7 − 18.4 = +1.3 pp

  4. Ashok Kumar Deb also won in 2001.
