Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.8% of votes; the other 3 candidates 5.9% between them.

    (37,491 + 28,240) ÷ 71,613 = 91.8% · 4,229 ÷ 71,613 = 5.9%

  2. Turnout of 77.0% was 1.7 pp below the state's median seat (78.7%).

    77.0 − 78.7 = −1.7

  3. The margin widened from 8.2 pp in 1977 to 12.9 pp.

    12.9 − 8.2 = +4.7 pp

  4. Tarak Bandhu Roy also won in 1977.

    1977 winner name = 1982 winner name
