[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 77.2% of votes; the other 3 candidates 19.7% between them.

    (26,573 + 16,819) ÷ 56,205 = 77.2% · 11,100 ÷ 56,205 = 19.7%
  2. Turnout of 54.2% was 8.4 pp above the state's median seat (45.8%).

    54.2 − 45.8 = +8.4
  3. The margin widened from 4.4 pp in 1977 to 17.4 pp.

    17.4 − 4.4 = +13.0 pp
  4. Sudarsan Mohanty, the 1977 winner, finished second in 1980.

    1977 winner name = 1980 runner-up name
