Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 19,235 votes, 1.9× the 10,187-vote margin.

    19,235 ÷ 10,187 = 1.9

  2. The top two polled 64.0% of votes; the other 6 candidates 32.0% between them.

    (42,083 + 31,896) ÷ 1,15,541 = 64.0% · 36,962 ÷ 1,15,541 = 32.0%

  3. Turnout of 74.1% was 0.3 pp below the state's median seat (74.4%).

    74.1 − 74.4 = −0.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 39.8 pp in 1990 to 8.8 pp.

    8.8 − 39.8 = −31.0 pp

  5. Mangala Kisan also won in 1990.

    1990 winner name = 1995 winner name
