Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.5% of votes; the other 3 candidates 1.7% between them.

    (3,76,546 + 2,70,019) ÷ 6,70,289 = 96.5% · 11,111 ÷ 6,70,289 = 1.7%

  2. Turnout of 69.9% was 10.1 pp above the state's median seat (59.8%).

    69.9 − 59.8 = +10.1

  3. The margin widened from 14.3 pp in 1984 to 15.9 pp.

    15.9 − 14.3 = +1.6 pp

  4. Ananta Prasad Sethi, the 1984 winner, finished second in 1989.

    1984 winner name = 1989 runner-up name
