Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 81.1% of votes; the other 4 candidates 17.9% between them.

    (36,444 + 19,849) ÷ 69,383 = 81.1% · 12,427 ÷ 69,383 = 17.9%

  2. Turnout of 81.3% was 5.1 pp above the state's median seat (76.2%).

    81.3 − 76.2 = +5.1

  3. The margin widened from 10.1 pp in 1996 to 23.9 pp.

    23.9 − 10.1 = +13.8 pp

  4. Afzalur Rahman, the 1996 winner, finished second in 2001.

    1996 winner name = 2001 runner-up name
