Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AGP polled 1,04,273 votes, 3.3× the 31,412-vote margin.

    1,04,273 ÷ 31,412 = 3.3

  2. The top two polled 83.2% of votes; the other 4 candidates 16.8% between them.

    (3,42,704 + 3,11,292) ÷ 7,85,885 = 83.2% · 1,32,073 ÷ 7,85,885 = 16.8%

  3. Turnout of 68.4% was 0.8 pp below the state's median seat (69.2%).

    68.4 − 69.2 = −0.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 4.5 pp in 1999 to 4.0 pp.

    4.0 − 4.5 = −0.5 pp

  5. Rajen Gohain also won in 1999.

    1999 winner name = 2004 winner name
