Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed LKD polled 12,117 votes, 13× the 958-vote margin.

    12,117 ÷ 958 = 12.6

  2. The top two polled 94.5% of votes; the other 2 candidates 3.7% between them.

    (2,63,352 + 2,62,394) ÷ 5,56,239 = 94.5% · 20,762 ÷ 5,56,239 = 3.7%

  3. Turnout of 71.5% was 16.4 pp above the state's median seat (55.1%).

    71.5 − 55.1 = +16.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 13.0 pp in 1980 to 0.2 pp.

    0.2 − 13.0 = −12.8 pp

  5. Lakshman Mallick also won in 1980.

    1980 winner name = 1984 winner name
