Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.8% of votes; the other 6 candidates 4.2% between them.

    (82,546 + 61,275) ÷ 1,50,154 = 95.8% · 6,333 ÷ 1,50,154 = 4.2%

  2. Turnout of 75.3% was 2.4 pp below the state's median seat (77.7%).

    75.3 − 77.7 = −2.4

  3. The margin narrowed from 17.2 pp in 2013 to 14.2 pp.

    14.2 − 17.2 = −3.0 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 2013, BJP in 2018.
