[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 87.7% of votes; the other 1 candidate 9.5% between them.

    (17,187 + 13,384) ÷ 34,866 = 87.7% · 3,314 ÷ 34,866 = 9.5%
  2. Turnout of 36.9% was 4.9 pp below the state's median seat (41.8%).

    36.9 − 41.8 = −4.9
  3. The margin narrowed from 12.1 pp in 1974 to 10.9 pp.

    10.9 − 12.1 = −1.2 pp
  4. Mohan Nag, the 1974 winner, finished second in 1977.

    1974 winner name = 1977 runner-up name
