Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 96.0% of votes; the other 2 candidates 4.0% between them.

    (86,215 + 77,402) ÷ 1,70,479 = 96.0% · 6,862 ÷ 1,70,479 = 4.0%
  2. Turnout of 92.5% was 6.6 pp above the state's median seat (85.9%).

    92.5 − 85.9 = +6.6
  3. The margin narrowed from 41.2 pp in 2006 to 5.2 pp.

    5.2 − 41.2 = −36.0 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2006, AITC in 2011.
