Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 89.0% of votes; the other 9 candidates 9.1% between them.

    (2,37,429 + 2,05,854) ÷ 4,97,814 = 89.0% · 45,471 ÷ 4,97,814 = 9.1%

  2. Turnout of 64.6% was 1.1 pp above the state's median seat (63.5%).

    64.6 − 63.5 = +1.1

  3. The margin narrowed from 31.9 pp in 1984 to 6.3 pp.

    6.3 − 31.9 = −25.6 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 1984, BJP in 1989.
