Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 97.1% of votes; the other 7 candidates 2.9% between them.

    (87,032 + 75,003) ÷ 1,66,939 = 97.1% · 4,904 ÷ 1,66,939 = 2.9%

  2. Turnout of 62.6% was 6.9 pp below the state's median seat (69.5%).

    62.6 − 69.5 = −6.9

  3. The margin narrowed from 17.6 pp in 2012 to 7.2 pp.

    7.2 − 17.6 = −10.4 pp

  4. Paresh Dhanani also won in 2012.
