Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 76.2% of votes; the other 7 candidates 19.6% between them.

    (1,76,107 + 69,560) ÷ 3,22,540 = 76.2% · 63,343 ÷ 3,22,540 = 19.6%

  2. Turnout of 47.5% was 7.6 pp below the state's median seat (55.1%).

    47.5 − 55.1 = −7.6

  3. The margin widened from 15.4 pp in 1980 to 33.0 pp.

    33.0 − 15.4 = +17.6 pp

  4. INC held the seat it won in 1980.
