Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JMM polled 3,240 votes, 5.1× the 640-vote margin.

    3,240 ÷ 640 = 5.1

  2. The top two polled 93.6% of votes; the other 14 candidates 6.4% between them.

    (68,741 + 68,101) ÷ 1,46,141 = 93.6% · 9,299 ÷ 1,46,141 = 6.4%

  3. Turnout of 76.9% was 2.9 pp below the state's median seat (79.8%).

    76.9 − 79.8 = −2.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 3.6 pp in 2006 to 0.4 pp.

    0.4 − 3.6 = −3.2 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 2006, DMK in 2011.
