Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 83.0% of votes; the other 4 candidates 17.0% between them.

    (62,962 + 22,769) ÷ 1,03,273 = 83.0% · 17,542 ÷ 1,03,273 = 17.0%

  2. Turnout of 83.9% matched the state's median seat.

    83.9 − 83.9 = 0.0

  3. The margin widened from 1.9 pp in 2011 to 38.9 pp.

    38.9 − 1.9 = +37.0 pp

  4. Arun Phukan, the 2011 winner, finished second in 2016.

    2011 winner name = 2016 runner-up name
