Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 89.5% of votes; the other 4 candidates 10.5% between them.

    (96,212 + 75,885) ÷ 1,92,346 = 89.5% · 20,249 ÷ 1,92,346 = 10.5%

  2. Turnout of 83.5% was 0.2 pp below the state's median seat (83.7%).

    83.5 − 83.7 = −0.2

  3. The margin narrowed from 19.9 pp in 2011 to 10.6 pp.

    10.6 − 19.9 = −9.3 pp

  4. Rabindranath Bhattacharya also won in 2011.
