Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.0% of votes; the other 6 candidates 6.0% between them.

    (75,880 + 46,990) ÷ 1,30,721 = 94.0% · 7,851 ÷ 1,30,721 = 6.0%

  2. Turnout of 69.1% was 8.1 pp above the state's median seat (61.0%).

    69.1 − 61.0 = +8.1

  3. The margin narrowed from 27.4 pp in 1996 to 22.1 pp.

    22.1 − 27.4 = −5.3 pp

  4. Thiruvengadam P.S., the 1996 winner, finished second in 2001.

    1996 winner name = 2001 runner-up name
