Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 94.4% of votes; the other 7 candidates 5.6% between them.

    (72,904 + 45,868) ÷ 1,25,766 = 94.4% · 6,994 ÷ 1,25,766 = 5.6%
  2. Turnout of 67.7% was 18.2 pp below the state's median seat (85.9%).

    67.7 − 85.9 = −18.2
  3. The margin widened from 16.4 pp in 2006 to 21.5 pp.

    21.5 − 16.4 = +5.1 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2006, AITC in 2011.
