Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed PPP polled 4,484 votes, 7.1× the 630-vote margin.

    4,484 ÷ 630 = 7.1

  2. The top two polled 91.4% of votes; the other 6 candidates 8.6% between them.

    (55,240 + 54,610) ÷ 1,20,158 = 91.4% · 10,308 ÷ 1,20,158 = 8.6%

  3. Turnout of 82.7% was 3.0 pp above the state's median seat (79.7%).

    82.7 − 79.7 = +3.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 1.9 pp in 2007 to 0.5 pp.

    0.5 − 1.9 = −1.4 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: IND in 2007, SAD in 2012.

    2007 IND · 2012 SAD
