Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 7,490 votes, 1.1× the 6,825-vote margin.

    7,490 ÷ 6,825 = 1.1

  2. The top two polled 90.9% of votes; the other 4 candidates 9.1% between them.

    (69,288 + 62,463) ÷ 1,44,911 = 90.9% · 13,156 ÷ 1,44,911 = 9.1%

  3. Turnout of 81.0% was 3.7 pp above the state's median seat (77.3%).

    81.0 − 77.3 = +3.7

  4. The margin narrowed from 14.0 pp in 1996 to 4.7 pp.

    4.7 − 14.0 = −9.3 pp

  5. CPI(M) held the seat it won in 1996.
