[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 89.5% of votes; the other 4 candidates 10.5% between them.

    (98,395 + 55,140) ÷ 1,71,555 = 89.5% · 18,020 ÷ 1,71,555 = 10.5%
  2. Turnout of 83.5% was 0.2 pp below the state's median seat (83.7%).

    83.5 − 83.7 = −0.2
  3. The margin widened from 10.8 pp in 2011 to 25.2 pp.

    25.2 − 10.8 = +14.4 pp
  4. Dulal Murmu also won in 2011.
