Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 19,861 votes, 18× the 1,126-vote margin.

    19,861 ÷ 1,126 = 17.6

  2. The top two polled 80.2% of votes; the other 3 candidates 19.8% between them.

    (47,444 + 46,318) ÷ 1,16,857 = 80.2% · 23,095 ÷ 1,16,857 = 19.8%

  3. Turnout of 64.6% was 8.8 pp below the state's median seat (73.4%).

    64.6 − 73.4 = −8.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.5 pp in 1999 to 1.0 pp.

    1.0 − 8.5 = −7.5 pp

  5. Ashok Gajapathiraju Poosapati, the 1999 winner, finished second in 2004.

    1999 winner name = 2004 runner-up name
