Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 97.1% of votes; the other 1 candidate 0.6% between them.

    (50,025 + 31,226) ÷ 83,661 = 97.1% · 518 ÷ 83,661 = 0.6%
  2. Turnout of 78.7% matched the state's median seat.

    78.7 − 78.7 = 0.0
  3. The margin narrowed from 40.7 pp in 1977 to 22.5 pp.

    22.5 − 40.7 = −18.2 pp
  4. Nani Bhattacharya also won in 1977.

    1977 winner name = 1982 winner name
