Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 94.7% of votes; the other 4 candidates 5.3% between them.

    (76,693 + 58,414) ÷ 1,42,683 = 94.7% · 7,576 ÷ 1,42,683 = 5.3%
  2. Turnout of 86.6% was 0.7 pp above the state's median seat (85.9%).

    86.6 − 85.9 = +0.7
  3. The margin widened from 1.1 pp in 2006 to 12.8 pp.

    12.8 − 1.1 = +11.7 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2006, AITC in 2011.
