[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed IND polled 3,795 votes, 3.5× the 1,097-vote margin.

    3,795 ÷ 1,097 = 3.5
  2. The top two polled 77.9% of votes; the other 10 candidates 20.2% between them.

    (21,905 + 20,808) ÷ 54,803 = 77.9% · 11,096 ÷ 54,803 = 20.2%
  3. Turnout of 66.2% was 4.2 pp below the state's median seat (70.4%).

    66.2 − 70.4 = −4.2
  4. The margin narrowed from 4.1 pp in 1977 to 2.0 pp.

    2.0 − 4.1 = −2.1 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: JNP in 1977, LKD in 1982.
