Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 7,577 votes, 2.2× the 3,406-vote margin.

    7,577 ÷ 3,406 = 2.2

  2. The top two polled 60.5% of votes; the other 8 candidates 39.5% between them.

    (25,095 + 21,689) ÷ 77,284 = 60.5% · 30,500 ÷ 77,284 = 39.5%

  3. Turnout of 53.5% was 13.4 pp below the state's median seat (66.9%).

    53.5 − 66.9 = −13.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 6.1 pp in 2004 to 4.4 pp.

    4.4 − 6.1 = −1.7 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 2004, BJD in 2009.
