Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 13,760 votes, 2.5× the 5,569-vote margin.

    13,760 ÷ 5,569 = 2.5

  2. The top two polled 66.8% of votes; the other 4 candidates 28.0% between them.

    (23,930 + 18,361) ÷ 63,287 = 66.8% · 17,702 ÷ 63,287 = 28.0%

  3. Turnout of 67.5% was 0.3 pp below the state's median seat (67.8%).

    67.5 − 67.8 = −0.3

  4. The margin widened from 7.2 pp in 1980 to 8.8 pp.

    8.8 − 7.2 = +1.6 pp

  5. Gulzar Singh, the 1980 winner, finished second in 1985.

    1980 winner name = 1985 runner-up name
