Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BDJS polled 9,129 votes, 1.1× the 7,989-vote margin.

    9,129 ÷ 7,989 = 1.1

  2. The top two polled 90.7% of votes; the other 9 candidates 9.3% between them.

    (65,659 + 57,670) ÷ 1,36,047 = 90.7% · 12,718 ÷ 1,36,047 = 9.3%

  3. Turnout of 81.2% was 3.7 pp above the state's median seat (77.5%).

    81.2 − 77.5 = +3.7

  4. The margin widened from 2.9 pp in 2011 to 5.9 pp.

    5.9 − 2.9 = +3.0 pp

  5. Adv. Sunny Joseph also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
