Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.6% of votes; the other 4 candidates 2.4% between them.

    (31,623 + 29,274) ÷ 63,723 = 95.6% · 1,514 ÷ 63,723 = 2.4%

  2. Turnout of 65.4% was 13.3 pp below the state's median seat (78.7%).

    65.4 − 78.7 = −13.3

  3. The margin narrowed from 18.5 pp in 1977 to 3.7 pp.

    3.7 − 18.5 = −14.8 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 1977, INC in 1982.
