Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.3% of votes; the other 2 candidates 1.7% between them.

    (47,161 + 30,293) ÷ 80,393 = 96.3% · 1,390 ÷ 80,393 = 1.7%

  2. Turnout of 67.6% was 11.1 pp below the state's median seat (78.7%).

    67.6 − 78.7 = −11.1

  3. The margin narrowed from 28.0 pp in 1981 to 21.0 pp.

    21.0 − 28.0 = −7.0 pp

  4. CPI(M) held the seat it won in 1981.
