[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed IND polled 16,946 votes, 4.7× the 3,602-vote margin.

    16,946 ÷ 3,602 = 4.7
  2. The top two polled 64.6% of votes; the other 9 candidates 34.1% between them.

    (21,443 + 17,841) ÷ 60,815 = 64.6% · 20,710 ÷ 60,815 = 34.1%
  3. Turnout of 63.0% was 7.1 pp above the state's median seat (55.9%).

    63.0 − 55.9 = +7.1
  4. The margin narrowed from 18.8 pp in 1980 to 5.9 pp.

    5.9 − 18.8 = −12.9 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1980, BJP in 1985.
