Answer:

3604

Step-by-step explanation:

Winner gets 55% of votes

As 4% votes were declared invalid

96% votes would be valid vote

Winner gets % valid votes =9655×100=52.8% votes

Loser gets=96−52.8=43.2% votes

Difference =9.6%

9.6%=240

1% = 240/9.66

100% = 240/9.66 x 100

3603.60 or 3604

therefore, the total number of voted casted is 3604
