Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 77.3% of votes; the other 7 candidates 22.7% between them.

    (89,210 + 50,440) ÷ 1,80,637 = 77.3% · 40,987 ÷ 1,80,637 = 22.7%
  2. Turnout of 85.4% was 1.7 pp above the state's median seat (83.7%).

    85.4 − 83.7 = +1.7
  3. The margin widened from 4.1 pp in 2011 to 21.5 pp.

    21.5 − 4.1 = +17.4 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2011, AITC in 2016.
