[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AGP polled 16,189 votes, 3.0× the 5,459-vote margin.

    16,189 ÷ 5,459 = 3.0

  2. The top two polled 60.2% of votes; the other 10 candidates 38.0% between them.

    (28,523 + 23,064) ÷ 85,705 = 60.2% · 32,556 ÷ 85,705 = 38.0%

  3. Turnout of 72.7% was 3.5 pp below the state's median seat (76.2%).

    72.7 − 76.2 = −3.5

  4. The margin narrowed from 26.8 pp in 1996 to 6.4 pp.

    6.4 − 26.8 = −20.4 pp

  5. Anwar Hussain Laskar also won in 1996.

    1996 winner name = 2001 winner name
