Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 75.9% of votes; the other 1 candidate 20.0% between them.

    (3,20,103 + 1,16,299) ÷ 5,75,215 = 75.9% · 1,15,090 ÷ 5,75,215 = 20.0%

  2. Turnout of 58.0% was 1.7 pp below the state's median seat (59.7%).

    58.0 − 59.7 = −1.7

  3. The margin widened from 14.2 pp in 1991 to 35.4 pp.

    35.4 − 14.2 = +21.2 pp

  4. Khagapati Pradhani also won in 1991.

    1991 winner name = 1996 winner name
