Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 14,443 votes, 89× the 163-vote margin.

    14,443 ÷ 163 = 88.6

  2. The top two polled 71.9% of votes; the other 2 candidates 27.0% between them.

    (19,554 + 19,391) ÷ 54,168 = 71.9% · 14,606 ÷ 54,168 = 27.0%

  3. Turnout of 68.8% was 5.6 pp below the state's median seat (74.4%).

    68.8 − 74.4 = −5.6

  4. The margin held at 0.3 pp, as in 1980.

    0.3 − 0.3 = 0.0 pp

  5. CPI held the seat it won in 1980.
