Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 89.6% of votes; the other 5 candidates 7.6% between them.

    (2,44,253 + 1,26,209) ÷ 4,13,689 = 89.6% · 31,532 ÷ 4,13,689 = 7.6%
  2. Turnout of 53.9% was 1.2 pp below the state's median seat (55.1%).

    53.9 − 55.1 = −1.2
  3. The margin narrowed from 30.6 pp in 1980 to 28.5 pp.

    28.5 − 30.6 = −2.1 pp
  4. INC held the seat it won in 1980.
