Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.0% of votes; the other 7 candidates 6.9% between them.

    (73,467 + 48,509) ÷ 1,31,096 = 93.0% · 9,043 ÷ 1,31,096 = 6.9%

  2. Turnout of 62.6% was 1.6 pp above the state's median seat (61.0%).

    62.6 − 61.0 = +1.6

  3. The margin widened from 16.5 pp in 1996 to 19.0 pp.

    19.0 − 16.5 = +2.5 pp

  4. Venu. K., the 1996 winner, finished second in 2001.

    1996 winner name = 2001 runner-up name
