Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.3% of votes; the other 6 candidates 9.0% between them.

    (5,44,020 + 4,42,327) ÷ 10,92,084 = 90.3% · 98,576 ÷ 10,92,084 = 9.0%

  2. Turnout of 74.0% was 0.8 pp below the state's median seat (74.8%).

    74.0 − 74.8 = −0.8

  3. The margin narrowed from 32.7 pp in 2014 to 9.3 pp.

    9.3 − 32.7 = −23.4 pp

  4. BJD held the seat it won in 2014.
