Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 40,735 votes, 3.1× the 13,057-vote margin.

    40,735 ÷ 13,057 = 3.1

  2. The top two polled 70.8% of votes; the other 7 candidates 29.2% between them.

    (65,202 + 52,145) ÷ 1,65,809 = 70.8% · 48,462 ÷ 1,65,809 = 29.2%

  3. Turnout of 79.3% was 5.8 pp above the state's median seat (73.5%).

    79.3 − 73.5 = +5.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 21.2 pp in 2014 to 7.9 pp.

    7.9 − 21.2 = −13.3 pp

  5. Padmanabha Behera also won in 2014.

    2014 winner name = 2019 winner name
