Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed OCP polled 15,493 votes, 1.3× the 12,148-vote margin.

    15,493 ÷ 12,148 = 1.3

  2. The top two polled 69.9% of votes; the other 8 candidates 28.7% between them.

    (44,380 + 32,232) ÷ 1,09,645 = 69.9% · 31,418 ÷ 1,09,645 = 28.7%

  3. Turnout of 66.5% was 7.9 pp below the state's median seat (74.4%).

    66.5 − 74.4 = −7.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 15.1 pp in 1990 to 11.1 pp.

    11.1 − 15.1 = −4.0 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: CPI(M) in 1990, INC in 1995.
