Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 34,658 votes, 1.5× the 23,252-vote margin.

    34,658 ÷ 23,252 = 1.5

  2. The top two polled 60.2% of votes; the other 11 candidates 39.1% between them.

    (60,216 + 36,964) ÷ 1,61,441 = 60.2% · 63,160 ÷ 1,61,441 = 39.1%

  3. Turnout of 70.7% was 7.1 pp below the state's median seat (77.8%).

    70.7 − 77.8 = −7.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 27.0 pp in 2009 to 14.4 pp.

    14.4 − 27.0 = −12.6 pp

  5. Venod Sharma, the 2009 winner, finished second in 2014.

    2009 winner name = 2014 runner-up name
