[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 93.8% of votes; the other 3 candidates 6.2% between them.

    (1,03,567 + 73,679) ÷ 1,88,888 = 93.8% · 11,642 ÷ 1,88,888 = 6.2%
  2. Turnout of 88.6% was 4.9 pp above the state's median seat (83.7%).

    88.6 − 83.7 = +4.9
  3. The margin widened from 3.9 pp in 2011 to 15.8 pp.

    15.8 − 3.9 = +11.9 pp
  4. Jyotirmoy Kar also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
