[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 95.7% of votes; the other 4 candidates 4.1% between them.

    (23,297 + 16,119) ÷ 41,194 = 95.7% · 1,706 ÷ 41,194 = 4.1%
  2. Turnout of 73.7% was 1.2 pp below the state's median seat (74.9%).

    73.7 − 74.9 = −1.2
  3. The margin widened from 10.1 pp in 1998 to 17.4 pp.

    17.4 − 10.1 = +7.3 pp
  4. Kuldeep Kumar also won in 1998.
