[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed LKD polled 11,019 votes, 94× the 117-vote margin.

    11,019 ÷ 117 = 94.2
  2. The top two polled 67.7% of votes; the other 5 candidates 31.3% between them.

    (16,050 + 15,933) ÷ 47,261 = 67.7% · 14,782 ÷ 47,261 = 31.3%
  3. Turnout of 48.5% was 7.4 pp below the state's median seat (55.9%).

    48.5 − 55.9 = −7.4
  4. The margin held at 0.2 pp, as in 1980.

    0.2 − 0.2 = 0.0 pp
  5. Babu Lal Bairwa also won in 1980.
