Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 89.8% of votes; the other 4 candidates 10.2% between them.

    (1,00,110 + 46,635) ÷ 1,63,353 = 89.8% · 16,608 ÷ 1,63,353 = 10.2%

  2. Turnout of 82.0% was 1.7 pp below the state's median seat (83.7%).

    82.0 − 83.7 = −1.7

  3. The margin widened from 11.3 pp in 2011 to 32.7 pp.

    32.7 − 11.3 = +21.4 pp

  4. Abu Hena also won in 2011.
