Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 89.3% of votes; the other 5 candidates 10.7% between them.

    (46,398 + 40,923) ÷ 97,777 = 89.3% · 10,440 ÷ 97,777 = 10.7%

  2. Turnout of 69.9% was 1.4 pp above the state's median seat (68.5%).

    69.9 − 68.5 = +1.4

  3. The margin narrowed from 17.3 pp in 1998 to 5.6 pp.

    5.6 − 17.3 = −11.7 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 1998, BJP in 2003.
