Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 85.2% of votes; the other 5 candidates 11.8% between them.

    (30,841 + 17,406) ÷ 56,606 = 85.2% · 6,672 ÷ 56,606 = 11.8%
  2. Turnout of 51.7% was 4.2 pp below the state's median seat (55.9%).

    51.7 − 55.9 = −4.2
  3. The margin narrowed from 31.4 pp in 1980 to 23.7 pp.

    23.7 − 31.4 = −7.7 pp
  4. Shiv Charan Mathur also won in 1980.
