Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed MDMK polled 8,474 votes, 1.5× the 5,761-vote margin.

    8,474 ÷ 5,761 = 1.5

  2. The top two polled 87.8% of votes; the other 8 candidates 12.1% between them.

    (59,840 + 54,079) ÷ 1,29,677 = 87.8% · 15,755 ÷ 1,29,677 = 12.1%

  3. Turnout of 62.3% was 1.3 pp above the state's median seat (61.0%).

    62.3 − 61.0 = +1.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 24.5 pp in 1996 to 4.4 pp.

    4.4 − 24.5 = −20.1 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: DMK in 1996, PMK in 2001.
