[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 95.0% of votes; the other 5 candidates 4.3% between them.

    (6,12,970 + 4,60,457) ÷ 11,30,143 = 95.0% · 48,238 ÷ 11,30,143 = 4.3%
  2. Turnout of 56.6% was 0.1 pp below the state's median seat (56.7%).

    56.6 − 56.7 = −0.1
  3. The margin narrowed from 45.2 pp in 2019 to 13.5 pp.

    13.5 − 45.2 = −31.7 pp
  4. Narendra Modi also won in 2019.

    2019 winner name = 2024 winner name
