Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 64.5% of votes; the other 13 candidates 35.5% between them.

    (61,383 + 35,820) ÷ 1,50,715 = 64.5% · 53,512 ÷ 1,50,715 = 35.5%

  2. Turnout of 84.1% was 6.4 pp above the state's median seat (77.7%).

    84.1 − 77.7 = +6.4

  3. The margin widened from 8.3 pp in 2013 to 17.0 pp.

    17.0 − 8.3 = +8.7 pp

  4. K. Shadakshari, the 2013 winner, finished second in 2018.

    2013 winner name = 2018 runner-up name
