The correct answer is (b).<\/p>\n

The winner obtained 180 votes, while the nearest candidate obtained 100 votes. Therefore, the winner defeated the nearest candidate by 80 votes.<\/p>\n

The other options are incorrect because they do not represent the difference between the number of votes obtained by the winner and the nearest candidate.<\/p>\n

Option (a) is incorrect because it is the difference between the number of votes obtained by the winner and the number of votes obtained by the second-nearest candidate.<\/p>\n

Option (c) is incorrect because it is the total number of votes polled.<\/p>\n

Option (d) is incorrect because it is the difference between the number of votes obtained by the winner and the number of votes obtained by the third-nearest candidate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
