Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 85.9% of votes; the other 7 candidates 14.1% between them.

    (54,218 + 42,280) ÷ 1,12,346 = 85.9% · 15,848 ÷ 1,12,346 = 14.1%

  2. Turnout of 57.7% was 3.3 pp below the state's median seat (61.0%).

    57.7 − 61.0 = −3.3

  3. The margin narrowed from 41.7 pp in 1996 to 10.6 pp.

    10.6 − 41.7 = −31.1 pp

  4. Abdul Latheef. M. also won in 1996.

    1996 winner name = 2001 winner name
