[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed IND polled 2,848 votes, 2.0× the 1,390-vote margin.

    2,848 ÷ 1,390 = 2.0
  2. The top two polled 91.6% of votes; the other 4 candidates 8.5% between them.

    (33,611 + 32,221) ÷ 71,832 = 91.6% · 6,113 ÷ 71,832 = 8.5%
  3. Turnout of 63.4% was 4.5 pp below the state's median seat (67.9%).

    63.4 − 67.9 = −4.5
  4. The margin narrowed from 5.2 pp in 1999 to 1.9 pp.

    1.9 − 5.2 = −3.3 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1999, BJP in 2004.
