Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI(M) polled 17,049 votes, 1.2× the 14,057-vote margin.

    17,049 ÷ 14,057 = 1.2

  2. The top two polled 78.3% of votes; the other 4 candidates 20.3% between them.

    (41,407 + 27,350) ÷ 87,786 = 78.3% · 17,843 ÷ 87,786 = 20.3%

  3. Turnout of 81.2% was 0.6 pp above the state's median seat (80.6%).

    81.2 − 80.6 = +0.6

  4. The margin widened from 13.3 pp in 1982 to 16.0 pp.

    16.0 − 13.3 = +2.7 pp

  5. C. T. Ahammad Ali also won in 1982.
