Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 98.6% of votes; the other 1 candidate 0.6% between them.

    (3,59,314 + 2,57,175) ÷ 6,24,939 = 98.6% · 3,947 ÷ 6,24,939 = 0.6%

  2. Turnout of 55.7% was 1.2 pp below the state's median seat (56.9%).

    55.7 − 56.9 = −1.2

  3. The margin widened from 1.2 pp in 1998 to 16.3 pp.

    16.3 − 1.2 = +15.1 pp

  4. BJD held the seat it won in 1998.
