Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.4% of votes; the other 2 candidates 1.8% between them.

    (24,662 + 22,840) ÷ 49,800 = 95.4% · 910 ÷ 49,800 = 1.8%

  2. Turnout of 53.3% was 7.5 pp above the state's median seat (45.8%).

    53.3 − 45.8 = +7.5

  3. The margin narrowed from 5.8 pp in 1977 to 3.7 pp.

    3.7 − 5.8 = −2.1 pp

  4. Prasanna Kumar Dash also won in 1977.

    1977 winner name = 1980 winner name
