Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 24,272 votes, 4.2× the 5,778-vote margin.

    24,272 ÷ 5,778 = 4.2

  2. The top two polled 72.1% of votes; the other 9 candidates 27.9% between them.

    (57,023 + 51,245) ÷ 1,50,100 = 72.1% · 41,832 ÷ 1,50,100 = 27.9%

  3. Turnout of 82.2% was 3.7 pp below the state's median seat (85.9%).

    82.2 − 85.9 = −3.7

  4. The margin widened from 1.5 pp in 2006 to 3.8 pp.

    3.8 − 1.5 = +2.3 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2006, AIFB in 2011.
