Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 97.8% of votes; the other 2 candidates 2.2% between them.

    (61,870 + 56,127) ÷ 1,20,690 = 97.8% · 2,693 ÷ 1,20,690 = 2.2%

  2. Turnout of 79.5% was 0.3 pp below the state's median seat (79.8%).

    79.5 − 79.8 = −0.3

  3. The margin narrowed from 5.1 pp in 2006 to 4.8 pp.

    4.8 − 5.1 = −0.3 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: DMK in 2006, AIADMK in 2011.
