[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JNP polled 17,722 votes, 2.9× the 6,118-vote margin.

    17,722 ÷ 6,118 = 2.9

  2. The top two polled 67.8% of votes; the other 3 candidates 30.1% between them.

    (24,729 + 18,611) ÷ 63,916 = 67.8% · 19,258 ÷ 63,916 = 30.1%

  3. Turnout of 61.9% was 6.0 pp above the state's median seat (55.9%).

    61.9 − 55.9 = +6.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 15.4 pp in 1980 to 9.6 pp.

    9.6 − 15.4 = −5.8 pp

  5. Jagdish Prasad Tiwari also won in 1980.
