Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 15,024 votes, 37× the 410-vote margin.

    15,024 ÷ 410 = 36.6

  2. The top two polled 79.9% of votes; the other 1 candidate 18.2% between them.

    (33,147 + 32,737) ÷ 82,432 = 79.9% · 15,024 ÷ 82,432 = 18.2%

  3. Turnout of 83.0% was 4.3 pp above the state's median seat (78.7%).

    83.0 − 78.7 = +4.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 25.0 pp in 1977 to 0.5 pp.

    0.5 − 25.0 = −24.5 pp

  5. SUCI(C) held the seat it won in 1977.
