Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 14,220 votes, 9.4× the 1,511-vote margin.

    14,220 ÷ 1,511 = 9.4

  2. NOTA polled 4,524 votes, 3.0× the winning margin of 1,511.

    4,524 ÷ 1,511 = 3.0

  3. The top two polled 70.9% of votes; the other 10 candidates 29.1% between them.

    (62,061 + 60,550) ÷ 1,72,832 = 70.9% · 50,221 ÷ 1,72,832 = 29.1%

  4. Turnout of 79.9% was 3.8 pp below the state's median seat (83.7%).

    79.9 − 83.7 = −3.8

  5. The margin narrowed from 4.7 pp in 2011 to 0.9 pp.

    0.9 − 4.7 = −3.8 pp

  6. Wilson Champramary also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
