Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 87.1% of votes; the other 3 candidates 12.9% between them.

    (75,021 + 51,294) ÷ 1,45,080 = 87.1% · 18,765 ÷ 1,45,080 = 12.9%

  2. Turnout of 67.1% was 6.4 pp below the state's median seat (73.5%).

    67.1 − 73.5 = −6.4

  3. The margin widened from 6.3 pp in 2014 to 16.4 pp.

    16.4 − 6.3 = +10.1 pp

  4. Nandini Devi, the 2014 winner, finished second in 2019.

    2014 winner name = 2019 runner-up name
