Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 88.6% of votes; the other 1 candidate 6.8% between them.

    (1,54,713 + 54,891) ÷ 2,36,565 = 88.6% · 16,181 ÷ 2,36,565 = 6.8%

  2. Turnout of 34.8% was 20.3 pp below the state's median seat (55.1%).

    34.8 − 55.1 = −20.3

  3. The margin widened from 40.5 pp in 1980 to 42.2 pp.

    42.2 − 40.5 = +1.7 pp
