[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 94.8% of votes; the other 5 candidates 5.2% between them.

    (13,327 + 8,169) ÷ 22,672 = 94.8% · 1,176 ÷ 22,672 = 5.2%
  2. Turnout of 91.5% was 5.5 pp above the state's median seat (86.0%).

    91.5 − 86.0 = +5.5
  3. The margin narrowed from 38.1 pp in 2006 to 22.8 pp.

    22.8 − 38.1 = −15.3 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: DMK in 2006, AINRC in 2011.
