Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 1,160 votes, 8.5× the 137-vote margin.

    1,160 ÷ 137 = 8.5

  2. The top two polled 85.5% of votes; the other 3 candidates 12.5% between them.

    (7,573 + 7,436) ÷ 17,558 = 85.5% · 2,203 ÷ 17,558 = 12.5%

  3. Turnout of 85.5% was 7.2 pp below the state's median seat (92.7%).

    85.5 − 92.7 = −7.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 37.6 pp in 1989 to 0.8 pp.

    0.8 − 37.6 = −36.8 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1989, IND in 1993.
