[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.6% of votes; the other 7 candidates 7.4% between them.

    (97,834 + 67,637) ÷ 1,78,616 = 92.6% · 13,145 ÷ 1,78,616 = 7.4%

  2. Turnout of 85.1% was 1.4 pp above the state's median seat (83.7%).

    85.1 − 83.7 = +1.4

  3. The margin widened from 12.5 pp in 2011 to 16.9 pp.

    16.9 − 12.5 = +4.4 pp

  4. Arunava Sen(RAJA) also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
