Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 41,344 votes, 2.9× the 14,471-vote margin.

    41,344 ÷ 14,471 = 2.9

  2. The top two polled 72.3% of votes; the other 41 candidates 25.5% between them.

    (1,42,356 + 1,27,885) ÷ 3,73,853 = 72.3% · 95,480 ÷ 3,73,853 = 25.5%

  3. Turnout of 34.9% was 8.4 pp below the state's median seat (43.3%).

    34.9 − 43.3 = −8.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 4.1 pp in 1991 to 3.9 pp.

    3.9 − 4.1 = −0.2 pp

  5. Gumanmal Lodha also won in 1991.

    1991 winner name = 1996 winner name
