Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.8% of votes; the other 2 candidates 2.2% between them.

    (42,464 + 30,423) ÷ 76,050 = 95.8% · 1,682 ÷ 76,050 = 2.2%

  2. Turnout of 75.6% was 3.1 pp below the state's median seat (78.7%).

    75.6 − 78.7 = −3.1

  3. The margin narrowed from 45.4 pp in 1977 to 15.8 pp.

    15.8 − 45.4 = −29.6 pp

  4. Barindra Nath Koley also won in 1977.
