[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed INC polled 10,212 votes, 7.1× the 1,433-vote margin.

    10,212 ÷ 1,433 = 7.1
  2. NOTA polled 2,271 votes, 1.6× the winning margin of 1,433.

    2,271 ÷ 1,433 = 1.6
  3. The top two polled 91.4% of votes; the other 3 candidates 8.6% between them.

    (69,725 + 68,292) ÷ 1,51,036 = 91.4% · 13,019 ÷ 1,51,036 = 8.6%
  4. Turnout of 78.4% was 4.9 pp above the state's median seat (73.5%).

    78.4 − 73.5 = +4.9
  5. The margin narrowed from 6.2 pp in 2014 to 0.9 pp.

    0.9 − 6.2 = −5.3 pp
  6. The seat changed hands: BJD in 2014, BJP in 2019.
