Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 86.4% of votes; the other 2 candidates 9.7% between them.

    (20,435 + 5,091) ÷ 29,558 = 86.4% · 2,861 ÷ 29,558 = 9.7%

  2. Turnout of 33.3% was 12.5 pp below the state's median seat (45.8%).

    33.3 − 45.8 = −12.5

  3. The margin widened from 23.6 pp in 1977 to 51.9 pp.

    51.9 − 23.6 = +28.3 pp

  4. Dayanidhi Naik also won in 1977.
