Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.8% of votes; the other 8 candidates 6.2% between them.

    (89,776 + 60,679) ÷ 1,60,379 = 93.8% · 9,924 ÷ 1,60,379 = 6.2%

  2. Turnout of 79.4% was 0.4 pp below the state's median seat (79.8%).

    79.4 − 79.8 = −0.4

  3. The margin widened from 9.1 pp in 2006 to 18.1 pp.

    18.1 − 9.1 = +9.0 pp

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