Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.4% of votes; the other 6 candidates 9.6% between them.

    (53,436 + 35,374) ÷ 98,269 = 90.4% · 9,459 ÷ 98,269 = 9.6%

  2. Turnout of 56.7% was 4.3 pp below the state's median seat (61.0%).

    56.7 − 61.0 = −4.3

  3. The margin narrowed from 24.4 pp in 1996 to 18.4 pp.

    18.4 − 24.4 = −6.0 pp

  4. Selvarasu.P, the 1996 winner, finished second in 2001.

    1996 winner name = 2001 runner-up name
