[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 17,815 votes, 1.7× the 10,238-vote margin.

    17,815 ÷ 10,238 = 1.7
  2. The top two polled 85.4% of votes; the other 3 candidates 14.6% between them.

    (75,066 + 64,828) ÷ 1,63,905 = 85.4% · 24,011 ÷ 1,63,905 = 14.6%
  3. Turnout of 86.2% was 0.3 pp above the state's median seat (85.9%).

    86.2 − 85.9 = +0.3
  4. The margin narrowed from 6.3 pp in 2006 to 6.2 pp.

    6.2 − 6.3 = −0.1 pp
  5. Asish Banerjee also won in 2006.

    2006 winner name = 2011 winner name
