Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 73.9% of votes; the other 2 candidates 23.5% between them.

    (30,654 + 14,516) ÷ 61,086 = 73.9% · 14,369 ÷ 61,086 = 23.5%
  2. Turnout of 60.9% was 15.1 pp above the state's median seat (45.8%).

    60.9 − 45.8 = +15.1
  3. The margin widened from 1.7 pp in 1977 to 26.4 pp.

    26.4 − 1.7 = +24.7 pp
  4. Ramesh Chandra Panda, the 1977 winner, finished second in 1980.

    1977 winner name = 1980 runner-up name
