Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.9% of votes; the other 8 candidates 9.1% between them.

    (67,012 + 41,554) ÷ 1,19,476 = 90.9% · 10,902 ÷ 1,19,476 = 9.1%

  2. Turnout of 61.0% matched the state's median seat.

    61.0 − 61.0 = 0.0

  3. The margin widened from 20.1 pp in 1996 to 21.3 pp.

    21.3 − 20.1 = +1.2 pp

  4. PMK held the seat it won in 1996.
