Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.7% of votes; the other 4 candidates 6.3% between them.

    (54,571 + 38,340) ÷ 99,138 = 93.7% · 6,227 ÷ 99,138 = 6.3%

  2. Turnout of 82.3% was 1.6 pp below the state's median seat (83.9%).

    82.3 − 83.9 = −1.6

  3. The margin narrowed from 35.8 pp in 2011 to 16.4 pp.

    16.4 − 35.8 = −19.4 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 2011, BJP in 2016.

    2011 INC · 2016 BJP
