[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 69.9% of votes; the other 9 candidates 30.1% between them.

    (22,459 + 8,730) ÷ 44,644 = 69.9% · 13,454 ÷ 44,644 = 30.1%
  2. Turnout of 75.6% was 0.7 pp above the state's median seat (74.9%).

    75.6 − 74.9 = +0.7
  3. The margin widened from 3.0 pp in 1998 to 30.8 pp.

    30.8 − 3.0 = +27.8 pp
  4. Ramesh Chand also won in 1998.
