[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed NNDP polled 2,360 votes, 20× the 119-vote margin.

    2,360 ÷ 119 = 19.8

  2. The top two polled 59.8% of votes; the other 2 candidates 39.5% between them.

    (2,480 + 2,361) ÷ 8,101 = 59.8% · 3,197 ÷ 8,101 = 39.5%

  3. Turnout of 76.3% was 2.3 pp below the state's median seat (78.6%).

    76.3 − 78.6 = −2.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 12.8 pp in 1977 to 1.5 pp.

    1.5 − 12.8 = −11.3 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: UDF in 1977, IND in 1982.

    1977 UDF · 1982 IND
