[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed JD polled 5,575 votes, 1.1× the 5,138-vote margin.

    5,575 ÷ 5,138 = 1.1
  2. The top two polled 84.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 10.1% between them.

    (42,339 + 37,201) ÷ 93,695 = 84.9% · 9,451 ÷ 93,695 = 10.1%
  3. Turnout of 73.0% was 6.4 pp above the state's median seat (66.6%).

    73.0 − 66.6 = +6.4
  4. The margin narrowed from 13.2 pp in 1990 to 5.5 pp.

    5.5 − 13.2 = −7.7 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1990, BJP in 1995.

    1990 INC · 1995 BJP
