Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 88.3% of votes; the other 5 candidates 11.7% between them.

    (46,696 + 30,365) ÷ 87,284 = 88.3% · 10,220 ÷ 87,284 = 11.7%

  2. Turnout of 67.1% was 6.3 pp above the state's median seat (60.8%).

    67.1 − 60.8 = +6.3

  3. The margin widened from 17.5 pp in 2002 to 18.7 pp.

    18.7 − 17.5 = +1.2 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 2002, BJP in 2007.
