[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 95.6% of votes; the other 6 candidates 4.2% between them.

    (41,937 + 30,559) ÷ 75,844 = 95.6% · 3,221 ÷ 75,844 = 4.2%
  2. Turnout of 65.8% was 1.6 pp below the state's median seat (67.4%).

    65.8 − 67.4 = −1.6
  3. The margin narrowed from 34.7 pp in 1997 to 15.0 pp.

    15.0 − 34.7 = −19.7 pp
  4. Jagir Kaur also won in 1997.

    1997 winner name = 2002 winner name
