Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.3% of votes; the other 4 candidates 2.8% between them.

    (43,344 + 30,234) ÷ 77,216 = 95.3% · 2,129 ÷ 77,216 = 2.8%

  2. Turnout of 72.3% was 6.4 pp below the state's median seat (78.7%).

    72.3 − 78.7 = −6.4

  3. The margin narrowed from 38.4 pp in 1977 to 17.0 pp.

    17.0 − 38.4 = −21.4 pp

  4. Jagadish Chandra Das also won in 1977.

    1977 winner name = 1982 winner name
