Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.6% of votes; the other 4 candidates 2.3% between them.

    (4,11,894 + 3,05,495) ÷ 7,42,298 = 96.6% · 16,709 ÷ 7,42,298 = 2.3%

  2. Turnout of 62.9% was 2.1 pp above the state's median seat (60.8%).

    62.9 − 60.8 = +2.1

  3. The margin widened from 0.2 pp in 1997 to 14.3 pp.

    14.3 − 0.2 = +14.1 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: BJP in 1997, INC in 1998.
