[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 94.3% of votes; the other 3 candidates 5.7% between them.

    (87,162 + 65,605) ÷ 1,62,052 = 94.3% · 9,285 ÷ 1,62,052 = 5.7%
  2. Turnout of 91.0% was 5.1 pp above the state's median seat (85.9%).

    91.0 − 85.9 = +5.1
  3. The margin widened from 0.6 pp in 2006 to 13.3 pp.

    13.3 − 0.6 = +12.7 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: IND in 2006, AITC in 2011.
