Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.2% of votes; the other 5 candidates 7.7% between them.

    (69,910 + 56,596) ÷ 1,37,246 = 92.2% · 10,597 ÷ 1,37,246 = 7.7%

  2. Turnout of 86.4% was 3.2 pp above the state's median seat (83.2%).

    86.4 − 83.2 = +3.2

  3. The margin narrowed from 14.1 pp in 2001 to 9.7 pp.

    9.7 − 14.1 = −4.4 pp

  4. CPI(M) held the seat it won in 2001.
