Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 98.4% of votes; the other 6 candidates 1.6% between them.

    (77,080 + 55,613) ÷ 1,34,837 = 98.4% · 2,144 ÷ 1,34,837 = 1.6%

  2. Turnout of 70.7% was 7.0 pp below the state's median seat (77.7%).

    70.7 − 77.7 = −7.0

  3. The margin widened from 12.4 pp in 2013 to 15.9 pp.

    15.9 − 12.4 = +3.5 pp

  4. Abbayya Prasad also won in 2013.
