Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.1% of votes; the other 5 candidates 7.3% between them.

    (7,50,804 + 5,06,815) ÷ 13,80,217 = 91.1% · 1,01,423 ÷ 13,80,217 = 7.3%

  2. Turnout of 83.7% was 1.1 pp above the state's median seat (82.6%).

    83.7 − 82.6 = +1.1

  3. The margin widened from 1.7 pp in 2014 to 17.7 pp.

    17.7 − 1.7 = +16.0 pp

  4. Dasrath Tirkey, the 2014 winner, finished second in 2019.

    2014 winner name = 2019 runner-up name
