Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 97.4% of votes; the other 2 candidates 1.1% between them.

    (44,493 + 38,536) ÷ 85,264 = 97.4% · 900 ÷ 85,264 = 1.1%

  2. Turnout of 80.9% was 2.2 pp above the state's median seat (78.7%).

    80.9 − 78.7 = +2.2

  3. The margin narrowed from 26.6 pp in 1977 to 7.0 pp.

    7.0 − 26.6 = −19.6 pp

  4. CPI(M) held the seat it won in 1977.
