Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 1,86,807 votes, 1.9× the 95,997-vote margin.

    1,86,807 ÷ 95,997 = 1.9

  2. The top two polled 73.2% of votes; the other 4 candidates 26.8% between them.

    (3,29,030 + 2,33,033) ÷ 7,68,217 = 73.2% · 2,06,154 ÷ 7,68,217 = 26.8%

  3. Turnout of 61.6% was 3.1 pp below the state's median seat (64.7%).

    61.6 − 64.7 = −3.1

  4. The margin widened from 7.6 pp in 1996 to 12.5 pp.

    12.5 − 7.6 = +4.9 pp

  5. Lgandula Ramana, the 1996 winner, finished second in 1998.

    1996 winner name = 1998 runner-up name
