Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JNP polled 3,457 votes, 2.0× the 1,743-vote margin.

    3,457 ÷ 1,743 = 2.0

  2. The top two polled 78.0% of votes; the other 7 candidates 20.5% between them.

    (10,365 + 8,622) ÷ 24,330 = 78.0% · 4,983 ÷ 24,330 = 20.5%

  3. Turnout of 65.0% was 7.1 pp below the state's median seat (72.1%).

    65.0 − 72.1 = −7.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 31.0 pp in 1977 to 7.2 pp.

    7.2 − 31.0 = −23.8 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: JNP in 1977, BJP in 1982.
