[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 94.5% of votes; the other 11 candidates 4.1% between them.

    (27,864 + 20,199) ÷ 50,838 = 94.5% · 2,078 ÷ 50,838 = 4.1%
  2. Turnout of 46.2% was 9.7 pp below the state's median seat (55.9%).

    46.2 − 55.9 = −9.7
  3. The margin widened from 12.3 pp in 1980 to 15.1 pp.

    15.1 − 12.3 = +2.8 pp
  4. Ujala Arora also won in 1980.
