Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 87.6% of votes; the other 3 candidates 12.4% between them.

    (68,694 + 41,857) ÷ 1,26,193 = 87.6% · 15,642 ÷ 1,26,193 = 12.4%
  2. Turnout of 78.8% was 5.1 pp below the state's median seat (83.9%).

    78.8 − 83.9 = −5.1
  3. The margin widened from 14.0 pp in 2011 to 21.3 pp.

    21.3 − 14.0 = +7.3 pp
  4. Girindra Mallik, the 2011 winner, finished second in 2016.

    2011 winner name = 2016 runner-up name
