Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.3% of votes; the other 2 candidates 5.6% between them.

    (58,531 + 45,956) ÷ 1,10,786 = 94.3% · 6,248 ÷ 1,10,786 = 5.6%

  2. Turnout of 75.4% was 2.7 pp above the state's median seat (72.7%).

    75.4 − 72.7 = +2.7

  3. The margin widened from 9.4 pp in 1996 to 11.4 pp.

    11.4 − 9.4 = +2.0 pp

  4. Oommen Chandy also won in 1996.

    1996 winner name = 2001 winner name
