Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 85.1% of votes; the other 11 candidates 14.0% between them.

    (23,723 + 16,651) ÷ 47,456 = 85.1% · 6,652 ÷ 47,456 = 14.0%

  2. Turnout of 57.3% was 10.5 pp below the state's median seat (67.8%).

    57.3 − 67.8 = −10.5

  3. The margin widened from 0.9 pp in 1980 to 14.9 pp.

    14.9 − 0.9 = +14.0 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 1980, BJP in 1985.
