Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 2,381 votes, 3.9× the 606-vote margin.

    2,381 ÷ 606 = 3.9

  2. The top two polled 95.1% of votes; the other 8 candidates 3.7% between them.

    (61,076 + 60,470) ÷ 1,27,860 = 95.1% · 4,737 ÷ 1,27,860 = 3.7%

  3. Turnout of 81.2% was 6.8 pp above the state's median seat (74.4%).

    81.2 − 74.4 = +6.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 14.8 pp in 1990 to 0.5 pp.

    0.5 − 14.8 = −14.3 pp

  5. Amar Prasad Satpathy also won in 1990.

    1990 winner name = 1995 winner name
