Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.1% of votes; the other 2 candidates 5.9% between them.

    (66,977 + 42,236) ÷ 1,16,045 = 94.1% · 6,832 ÷ 1,16,045 = 5.9%

  2. Turnout of 75.9% was 0.6 pp above the state's median seat (75.3%).

    75.9 − 75.3 = +0.6

  3. The margin widened from 17.3 pp in 2006 to 21.3 pp.

    21.3 − 17.3 = +4.0 pp

  4. CPI(M) held the seat it won in 2006.

    2006 CPI(M) · 2011 CPI(M)
