Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 35,547 votes, 11× the 3,232-vote margin.

    35,547 ÷ 3,232 = 11.0

  2. NOTA polled 4,376 votes, 1.4× the winning margin of 3,232.

    4,376 ÷ 3,232 = 1.4

  3. The top two polled 58.5% of votes; the other 7 candidates 41.5% between them.

    (54,599 + 51,367) ÷ 1,81,114 = 58.5% · 75,148 ÷ 1,81,114 = 41.5%

  4. Turnout of 79.9% was 3.8 pp below the state's median seat (83.7%).

    79.9 − 83.7 = −3.8

  5. The margin narrowed from 3.8 pp in 2011 to 1.8 pp.

    1.8 − 3.8 = −2.0 pp

  6. Gokul Roy, the 2011 winner, finished second in 2016.

    2011 winner name = 2016 runner-up name
