Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JD(S) polled 4,62,320 votes, 4.0× the 1,16,663-vote margin.

    4,62,320 ÷ 1,16,663 = 4.0

  2. The top two polled 67.8% of votes; the other 3 candidates 32.3% between them.

    (5,84,238 + 4,67,575) ÷ 15,51,189 = 67.8% · 5,00,603 ÷ 15,51,189 = 32.3%

  3. Turnout of 57.6% was 10.7 pp below the state's median seat (68.3%).

    57.6 − 68.3 = −10.7

  4. The margin widened from 3.7 pp in 2002 to 7.5 pp.

    7.5 − 3.7 = +3.8 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: JD(S) in 2002, INC in 2004.
