[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 96.0% of votes; the other 2 candidates 1.7% between them.

    (64,075 + 30,721) ÷ 98,722 = 96.0% · 1,637 ÷ 98,722 = 1.7%
  2. Turnout of 73.4% was 5.3 pp below the state's median seat (78.7%).

    73.4 − 78.7 = −5.3
  3. The margin narrowed from 40.1 pp in 1981 to 33.8 pp.

    33.8 − 40.1 = −6.3 pp
  4. CPI(M) held the seat it won in 1981.
