Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 61,014 votes, 5.0× the 12,160-vote margin.

    61,014 ÷ 12,160 = 5.0

  2. The top two polled 89.5% of votes; the other 8 candidates 10.8% between them.

    (5,20,384 + 5,08,224) ÷ 11,48,662 = 89.5% · 1,24,552 ÷ 11,48,662 = 10.8%

  3. Turnout of 82.8% was 3.4 pp above the state's median seat (79.4%).

    82.8 − 79.4 = +3.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 9.3 pp in 1999 to 1.1 pp.

    1.1 − 9.3 = −8.2 pp

  5. Dr. Ranjit Kumar Panja, the 1999 winner, finished second in 2004.

    1999 winner name = 2004 runner-up name
