Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.4% of votes; the other 6 candidates 2.8% between them.

    (47,077 + 38,046) ÷ 88,271 = 96.4% · 2,491 ÷ 88,271 = 2.8%

  2. Turnout of 73.2% was 5.8 pp above the state's median seat (67.4%).

    73.2 − 67.4 = +5.8

  3. The margin widened from 2.0 pp in 1997 to 10.2 pp.

    10.2 − 2.0 = +8.2 pp

  4. Janmeja Singh, the 1997 winner, finished second in 2002.

    1997 winner name = 2002 runner-up name
