[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BSP polled 22,831 votes, 1.6× the 14,104-vote margin.

    22,831 ÷ 14,104 = 1.6
  2. The top two polled 82.3% of votes; the other 11 candidates 17.7% between them.

    (76,399 + 62,295) ÷ 1,68,503 = 82.3% · 29,809 ÷ 1,68,503 = 17.7%
  3. Turnout of 67.9% was 7.8 pp below the state's median seat (75.7%).

    67.9 − 75.7 = −7.8
  4. The margin widened from 4.5 pp in 2013 to 8.4 pp.

    8.4 − 4.5 = +3.9 pp
  5. INC held the seat it won in 2013.
