Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.3% of votes; the other 1 candidate 4.7% between them.

    (89,211 + 37,994) ÷ 1,33,436 = 95.3% · 6,223 ÷ 1,33,436 = 4.7%

  2. Turnout of 84.9% was 7.6 pp above the state's median seat (77.3%).

    84.9 − 77.3 = +7.6

  3. The margin widened from 20.7 pp in 1996 to 38.4 pp.

    38.4 − 20.7 = +17.7 pp

  4. Nimai Mal also won in 1996.

    1996 winner name = 2001 winner name
