Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.1% of votes; the other 10 candidates 4.9% between them.

    (2,98,258 + 2,22,961) ÷ 5,48,212 = 95.1% · 26,993 ÷ 5,48,212 = 4.9%

  2. Turnout of 65.5% was 8.4 pp above the state's median seat (57.1%).

    65.5 − 57.1 = +8.4

  3. The margin widened from 13.1 pp in 1980 to 13.7 pp.

    13.7 − 13.1 = +0.6 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC(U) in 1980, INC in 1984.
