Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 6,744 votes, 19× the 354-vote margin.

    6,744 ÷ 354 = 19.1

  2. The top two polled 88.5% of votes; the other 6 candidates 10.3% between them.

    (55,732 + 55,378) ÷ 1,25,498 = 88.5% · 12,912 ÷ 1,25,498 = 10.3%

  3. Turnout of 77.1% was 2.7 pp above the state's median seat (74.4%).

    77.1 − 74.4 = +2.7

  4. The margin narrowed from 10.1 pp in 1990 to 0.3 pp.

    0.3 − 10.1 = −9.8 pp

  5. Bijoyshree Routray also won in 1990.

    1990 winner name = 1995 winner name
