[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 35,270 votes, 1.7× the 20,956-vote margin.

    35,270 ÷ 20,956 = 1.7
  2. The top two polled 74.7% of votes; the other 15 candidates 24.8% between them.

    (67,303 + 46,347) ÷ 1,52,041 = 74.7% · 37,663 ÷ 1,52,041 = 24.8%
  3. Turnout of 76.0% matched the state's median seat.

    76.0 − 76.0 = 0.0
  4. The margin widened from 5.5 pp in 2016 to 13.8 pp.

    13.8 − 5.5 = +8.3 pp
  5. CPI(M) held the seat it won in 2016.
