Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 83.6% of votes; the other 8 candidates 16.4% between them.

    (4,20,331 + 2,59,834) ÷ 8,13,315 = 83.6% · 1,33,150 ÷ 8,13,315 = 16.4%

  2. Turnout of 63.6% was 6.0 pp above the state's median seat (57.6%).

    63.6 − 57.6 = +6.0

  3. The margin widened from 1.2 pp in 1999 to 19.7 pp.

    19.7 − 1.2 = +18.5 pp

  4. Syed Shahnawaz Hussain, the 1999 winner, finished second in 2004.

    1999 winner name = 2004 runner-up name

Each line is arithmetic over the figures on this page.
