Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.0% of votes; the other 2 candidates 6.9% between them.

    (8,960 + 6,400) ÷ 16,518 = 93.0% · 1,148 ÷ 16,518 = 6.9%

  2. Turnout of 78.3% was 7.7 pp above the state's median seat (70.6%).

    78.3 − 70.6 = +7.7

  3. The margin widened from 0.6 pp in 1999 to 15.5 pp.

    15.5 − 0.6 = +14.9 pp

  4. Raut Pandurang Dattaram, the 1999 winner, finished second in 2002.

    1999 winner name = 2002 runner-up name
