Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 3,972 votes, 1.7× the 2,313-vote margin.

    3,972 ÷ 2,313 = 1.7

  2. The top two polled 90.1% of votes; the other 2 candidates 7.7% between them.

    (35,336 + 33,023) ÷ 75,851 = 90.1% · 5,821 ÷ 75,851 = 7.7%

  3. Turnout of 78.6% was 0.1 pp below the state's median seat (78.7%).

    78.6 − 78.7 = −0.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 10.5 pp in 1977 to 3.0 pp.

    3.0 − 10.5 = −7.5 pp

  5. Lutfal Haque also won in 1977.

    1977 winner name = 1982 winner name
