[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 5,917 votes, 10× the 579-vote margin.

    5,917 ÷ 579 = 10.2
  2. The top two polled 93.7% of votes; the other 6 candidates 6.3% between them.

    (70,990 + 70,411) ÷ 1,50,904 = 93.7% · 9,503 ÷ 1,50,904 = 6.3%
  3. Turnout of 77.4% was 0.1 pp below the state's median seat (77.5%).

    77.4 − 77.5 = −0.1
  4. The margin narrowed from 7.2 pp in 2011 to 0.4 pp.

    0.4 − 7.2 = −6.8 pp
  5. Manjalamkuzhi Ali also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
