Age, sex, religion and the 2002 roll

    Age

    Deletion rate by age band, each constituency

    Share of electors in each band struck off.

    Religion

    Deletion rate by religion guessed from names

    Hindu-name and Muslim-name electors, constituency by constituency.

    The same gap, inside each part

    Hindu-name rate minus Muslim-name rate, pooled across parts with at least 20 of each and weighted by the smaller group in each part.

    The lists give religion and age separately and never together, so part of a gap by religion may be a gap by age. Religion is guessed from names.

    The 2002 roll

    Linked and unlinked to 2002

    Deletion rate for electors who link to the 2002 intensive revision roll and for those who do not. Malakpet's list does not record the link.

    Share of the roll linked to 2002

    How much of each roll could be traced back.

    Sex

    Women and men

    Deletion rate for each, constituency by constituency.

    Within parts

    Women's rate minus men's, pooled within parts, and how many parts go each way.

    Religion is guessed from names because the roll does not record it, and a separate classification agrees on 99% of names. Electors whose names were classified as neither Hindu nor Muslim are left out of both religion rates. The 2002 link means the export matches the elector to the 2002 intensive revision roll.
