Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
One candidate secured 54% of valid votes.
Votes secured by losing candidate = 46%.
Difference of their % of votes = 48000.
8% of Valid votes = 48000
Hence valid votes =6,00,000.
Let total votes polled be x.
if 40% if votes are declared invalid , means 60% of polled votes are valid.
60% of x = 6,00,000
x = 10,00,000.
Total votes polled = 10,00,000.
