Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.0% of votes; the other 6 candidates 4.0% between them.

    (90,186 + 65,469) ÷ 1,62,217 = 96.0% · 6,562 ÷ 1,62,217 = 4.0%

  2. Turnout of 83.4% was 3.6 pp above the state's median seat (79.8%).

    83.4 − 79.8 = +3.6

  3. The margin widened from 8.8 pp in 2006 to 15.2 pp.

    15.2 − 8.8 = +6.4 pp

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