Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 89.5% of votes; the other 8 candidates 10.5% between them.

    (71,524 + 57,430) ÷ 1,44,069 = 89.5% · 15,115 ÷ 1,44,069 = 10.5%

  2. Turnout of 67.0% was 12.8 pp below the state's median seat (79.8%).

    67.0 − 79.8 = −12.8

  3. The margin widened from 8.0 pp in 2006 to 9.8 pp.

    9.8 − 8.0 = +1.8 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: PMK in 2006, DMDK in 2011.
