Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 78.8% of votes; the other 4 candidates 21.2% between them.

    (74,555 + 43,013) ÷ 1,49,165 = 78.8% · 31,597 ÷ 1,49,165 = 21.2%

  2. Turnout of 76.3% was 1.2 pp below the state's median seat (77.5%).

    76.3 − 77.5 = −1.2

  3. The margin widened from 3.9 pp in 2011 to 21.1 pp.

    21.1 − 3.9 = +17.2 pp

  4. R.Rajesh also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
