Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 620 votes, 1.2× the 528-vote margin.

    620 ÷ 528 = 1.2

  2. The top two polled 90.7% of votes; the other 6 candidates 7.5% between them.

    (11,669 + 11,141) ÷ 25,138 = 90.7% · 1,883 ÷ 25,138 = 7.5%

  3. Turnout of 77.9% was 5.8 pp above the state's median seat (72.1%).

    77.9 − 72.1 = +5.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 23.4 pp in 1977 to 2.1 pp.

    2.1 − 23.4 = −21.3 pp

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