Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 97.0% of votes; the other 3 candidates 2.0% between them.

    (72,278 + 49,225) ÷ 1,25,295 = 97.0% · 2,456 ÷ 1,25,295 = 2.0%

  2. Turnout of 77.0% was 2.6 pp above the state's median seat (74.4%).

    77.0 − 74.4 = +2.6

  3. The margin widened from 1.4 pp in 1990 to 18.4 pp.

    18.4 − 1.4 = +17.0 pp

  4. Basanta Kumar Biswal also won in 1990.

    1990 winner name = 1995 winner name
