[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 94.9% of votes; the other 3 candidates 5.0% between them.

    (14,323 + 8,769) ÷ 24,341 = 94.9% · 1,227 ÷ 24,341 = 5.0%
  2. Turnout of 67.9% was 5.1 pp below the state's median seat (73.0%).

    67.9 − 73.0 = −5.1
  3. The margin widened from 9.6 pp in 1996 to 22.8 pp.

    22.8 − 9.6 = +13.2 pp
  4. N. Rangasamy also won in 1996.

    1996 winner name = 2001 winner name
