[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed INC polled 30,572 votes, 3.5× the 8,823-vote margin.

    30,572 ÷ 8,823 = 3.5
  2. The top two polled 77.6% of votes; the other 8 candidates 22.4% between them.

    (65,388 + 56,565) ÷ 1,57,064 = 77.6% · 35,111 ÷ 1,57,064 = 22.4%
  3. Turnout of 72.0% was 1.5 pp below the state's median seat (73.5%).

    72.0 − 73.5 = −1.5
  4. The margin narrowed from 13.5 pp in 2014 to 5.6 pp.

    5.6 − 13.5 = −7.9 pp
  5. BJD held the seat it won in 2014.
