Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.5% of votes; the other 12 candidates 4.9% between them.

    (4,86,991 + 4,63,152) ÷ 10,05,215 = 94.5% · 48,916 ÷ 10,05,215 = 4.9%

  2. Turnout of 59.1% was 15.7 pp below the state's median seat (74.8%).

    59.1 − 74.8 = −15.7

  3. The margin narrowed from 21.2 pp in 2014 to 2.4 pp.

    2.4 − 21.2 = −18.8 pp
