Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.8% of votes; the other 6 candidates 2.7% between them.

    (3,48,881 + 2,52,090) ÷ 6,27,566 = 95.8% · 17,167 ÷ 6,27,566 = 2.7%

  2. Turnout of 68.9% was 9.1 pp above the state's median seat (59.8%).

    68.9 − 59.8 = +9.1

  3. The margin widened from 7.7 pp in 1985 to 15.4 pp.

    15.4 − 7.7 = +7.7 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: JNP in 1985, JD in 1989.
