[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 95.8% of votes; the other 1 candidate 4.2% between them.

    (56,566 + 45,018) ÷ 1,06,008 = 95.8% · 4,409 ÷ 1,06,008 = 4.2%
  2. Turnout of 59.4% was 1.4 pp below the state's median seat (60.8%).

    59.4 − 60.8 = −1.4
  3. The margin narrowed from 15.3 pp in 2002 to 10.9 pp.

    10.9 − 15.3 = −4.4 pp
  4. Chauhan Sundarsinh Bhalabhai also won in 2002.
