[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 90.6% of votes; the other 10 candidates 9.4% between them.

    (79,960 + 56,073) ÷ 1,50,165 = 90.6% · 14,132 ÷ 1,50,165 = 9.4%
  2. Turnout of 66.2% was 3.3 pp below the state's median seat (69.5%).

    66.2 − 69.5 = −3.3
  3. The margin widened from 8.3 pp in 2012 to 15.9 pp.

    15.9 − 8.3 = +7.6 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2012, INC in 2017.
