Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 98.1% of votes; the other 13 candidates 1.9% between them.

    (1,31,586 + 77,831) ÷ 2,13,574 = 98.1% · 4,157 ÷ 2,13,574 = 1.9%

  2. Turnout of 69.2% was 0.3 pp below the state's median seat (69.5%).

    69.2 − 69.5 = −0.3

  3. The margin widened from 16.8 pp in 2014 to 25.2 pp.

    25.2 − 16.8 = +8.4 pp
