Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 1,58,979 votes, 26× the 6,174-vote margin.

    1,58,979 ÷ 6,174 = 25.7

  2. The top two polled 78.7% of votes; the other 6 candidates 21.3% between them.

    (3,22,801 + 3,16,627) ÷ 8,12,795 = 78.7% · 1,73,367 ÷ 8,12,795 = 21.3%

  3. Turnout of 62.2% was 2.5 pp below the state's median seat (64.7%).

    62.2 − 64.7 = −2.5

  4. The margin narrowed from 9.4 pp in 1996 to 0.8 pp.

    0.8 − 9.4 = −8.6 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1996, TDP in 1998.
