Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 87.9% of votes; the other 3 candidates 12.1% between them.

    (1,18,501 + 88,817) ÷ 2,35,935 = 87.9% · 28,617 ÷ 2,35,935 = 12.1%

  2. Turnout of 80.4% was 3.3 pp below the state's median seat (83.7%).

    80.4 − 83.7 = −3.3

  3. The margin narrowed from 19.9 pp in 2011 to 12.6 pp.

    12.6 − 19.9 = −7.3 pp

  4. Asit Mazumder (TAPAN) also won in 2011.
