Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 89.4% of votes; the other 3 candidates 10.6% between them.

    (95,902 + 60,558) ÷ 1,75,031 = 89.4% · 18,571 ÷ 1,75,031 = 10.6%

  2. Turnout of 84.8% was 1.1 pp above the state's median seat (83.7%).

    84.8 − 83.7 = +1.1

  3. The margin widened from 7.9 pp in 2011 to 20.2 pp.

    20.2 − 7.9 = +12.3 pp

  4. Pulak Roy also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
