Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.8% of votes; the other 2 candidates 4.5% between them.

    (1,84,386 + 1,49,434) ÷ 3,63,455 = 91.8% · 16,514 ÷ 3,63,455 = 4.5%

  2. Turnout of 56.1% was 1.0 pp above the state's median seat (55.1%).

    56.1 − 55.1 = +1.0

  3. The margin narrowed from 29.7 pp in 1980 to 9.6 pp.

    9.6 − 29.7 = −20.1 pp

  4. INC held the seat it won in 1980.
