Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 57.0% of votes; the other 8 candidates 43.1% between them.

    (47,550 + 20,199) ÷ 1,18,792 = 57.0% · 51,242 ÷ 1,18,792 = 43.1%

  2. Turnout of 68.4% was 0.5 pp above the state's median seat (67.9%).

    68.4 − 67.9 = +0.5

  3. The margin widened from 8.0 pp in 1999 to 23.0 pp.

    23.0 − 8.0 = +15.0 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: BJP in 1999, INC in 2004.
