Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.8% of votes; the other 1 candidate 9.2% between them.

    (1,01,138 + 70,825) ÷ 1,89,476 = 90.8% · 17,513 ÷ 1,89,476 = 9.2%

  2. Turnout of 87.1% was 3.4 pp above the state's median seat (83.7%).

    87.1 − 83.7 = +3.4

  3. The margin widened from 1.8 pp in 2011 to 16.0 pp.

    16.0 − 1.8 = +14.2 pp

  4. Islam Monirul also won in 2011.
