Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.5% of votes; the other 6 candidates 8.0% between them.

    (8,55,633 + 5,28,380) ÷ 15,28,470 = 90.5% · 1,22,735 ÷ 15,28,470 = 8.0%

  2. Turnout of 83.1% was 1.9 pp above the state's median seat (81.2%).

    83.1 − 81.2 = +1.9

  3. The margin widened from 7.3 pp in 2019 to 21.4 pp.

    21.4 − 7.3 = +14.1 pp

  4. Asit Kumar Mal also won in 2019.
