Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 6.1% between them.

    (36,601 + 27,969) ÷ 68,762 = 93.9% · 4,192 ÷ 68,762 = 6.1%

  2. Turnout of 57.5% was 6.1 pp below the state's median seat (63.6%).

    57.5 − 63.6 = −6.1

  3. The margin widened from 5.1 pp in 2012 to 12.6 pp.

    12.6 − 5.1 = +7.5 pp

  4. Raj Kumar, the 2012 winner, finished second in 2017.

    2012 winner name = 2017 runner-up name
