Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.2% of votes; the other 8 candidates 4.0% between them.

    (2,55,916 + 86,286) ÷ 3,67,031 = 93.2% · 14,824 ÷ 3,67,031 = 4.0%

  2. Turnout of 56.6% was 0.1 pp above the state's median seat (56.5%).

    56.6 − 56.5 = +0.1

  3. The margin widened from 43.3 pp in 1977 to 46.2 pp.

    46.2 − 43.3 = +2.9 pp

  4. INC held the seat it won in 1977.
