Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.0% of votes; the other 4 candidates 5.3% between them.

    (40,056 + 37,679) ÷ 82,653 = 94.0% · 4,358 ÷ 82,653 = 5.3%

  2. Turnout of 84.3% was 9.9 pp above the state's median seat (74.4%).

    84.3 − 74.4 = +9.9

  3. The margin widened from 2.2 pp in 1980 to 2.9 pp.

    2.9 − 2.2 = +0.7 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 1980, KEC in 1982.
