[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 8,046 votes, 1.3× the 6,043-vote margin.

    8,046 ÷ 6,043 = 1.3
  2. The top two polled 89.0% of votes; the other 8 candidates 11.0% between them.

    (62,927 + 56,884) ÷ 1,34,616 = 89.0% · 14,805 ÷ 1,34,616 = 11.0%
  3. Turnout of 73.7% was 3.8 pp below the state's median seat (77.5%).

    73.7 − 77.5 = −3.8
  4. The margin narrowed from 30.1 pp in 2011 to 4.5 pp.

    4.5 − 30.1 = −25.6 pp
  5. P.K Abdu Rabb also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
