Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 79.9% of votes; the other 7 candidates 19.3% between them.

    (40,241 + 14,543) ÷ 68,527 = 79.9% · 13,218 ÷ 68,527 = 19.3%

  2. Turnout of 43.8% was 6.2 pp below the state's median seat (50.0%).

    43.8 − 50.0 = −6.2

  3. The margin widened from 4.2 pp in 1993 to 37.5 pp.

    37.5 − 4.2 = +33.3 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: BJP in 1993, INC in 1998.
