[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 84.3% of votes; the other 9 candidates 11.6% between them.

    (5,11,866 + 3,84,686) ÷ 10,63,027 = 84.3% · 1,23,612 ÷ 10,63,027 = 11.6%
  2. Turnout of 52.5% was 4.7 pp below the state's median seat (57.2%).

    52.5 − 57.2 = −4.7
  3. The margin narrowed from 27.9 pp in 2019 to 12.0 pp.

    12.0 − 27.9 = −15.9 pp
  4. Dr. Alok Kumar Suman also won in 2019.
