[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 92.2% of votes; the other 4 candidates 7.8% between them.

    (76,879 + 67,776) ÷ 1,56,861 = 92.2% · 12,206 ÷ 1,56,861 = 7.8%
  2. Turnout of 68.1% was 5.4 pp below the state's median seat (73.5%).

    68.1 − 73.5 = −5.4
  3. The margin narrowed from 21.6 pp in 2014 to 5.8 pp.

    5.8 − 21.6 = −15.8 pp
  4. Bikram Keshari Arukha also won in 2014.
