Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 82.7% of votes; the other 6 candidates 17.3% between them.

    (43,579 + 34,516) ÷ 94,445 = 82.7% · 16,306 ÷ 94,445 = 17.3%

  2. Turnout of 71.8% was 4.4 pp above the state's median seat (67.4%).

    71.8 − 67.4 = +4.4

  3. The margin narrowed from 19.6 pp in 1997 to 9.6 pp.

    9.6 − 19.6 = −10.0 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: BJP in 1997, INC in 2002.
