Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 68.9% of votes; the other 4 candidates 31.1% between them.

    (37,006 + 18,459) ÷ 80,457 = 68.9% · 24,999 ÷ 80,457 = 31.1%

  2. Turnout of 54.0% was 13.9 pp below the state's median seat (67.9%).

    54.0 − 67.9 = −13.9

  3. The margin narrowed from 62.9 pp in 1999 to 23.1 pp.

    23.1 − 62.9 = −39.8 pp

  4. Mallikarjun Kharge also won in 1999.
