Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 85.4% of votes; the other 8 candidates 14.5% between them.

    (60,817 + 35,808) ÷ 1,13,150 = 85.4% · 16,455 ÷ 1,13,150 = 14.5%

  2. Turnout of 59.1% was 1.9 pp below the state's median seat (61.0%).

    59.1 − 61.0 = −1.9

  3. The margin widened from 11.7 pp in 1996 to 22.1 pp.

    22.1 − 11.7 = +10.4 pp

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

    1996 winner name = 2001 runner-up name
