Let me guess, the purple areas are the poorer parts of Paramaribo as well as rural areas where the election was rigged.
Yellow had some sort of home field advantage, though idk about those 2 districts in Paramaribo
And orange basically got everyone else
Surinamese politics and elections play out largely along ethnic lines. The NDP (in purple) won every resort with a Creole plurality except one in Paramaribo, and also won every resort with an indigenous plurality. The VHP (in orange) won every resort with an Hindustani plurality except one, as well as every resort with a Javanese plurality. That being said, the NDP is the only party which won seats in every single district, and its support is more balanced across the country (it placed either first or second in every district), something that cannot be said for the VHP even in spite of its excellent results this year. In districts with a small/negligible Hindustani (Indo-Surinamese) population, the VHP's results were in the single digits.
The ABOP (yellow) is a Maroon party and it does indeed have a very obvious favourite son advantage in Ronnie Brunswijk's stronghold of Marowijne district (where it won 64% overall and even higher in Brunswijk's home base around Moengotapoe resort). Its support among Maroon voters in other parts of the country is less impressive, and the NDP does appear to do well with Maroon voters in Brokopondo and Para districts (less so this year than in 2015). This year, ABOP did win all but four resorts with a Maroon plurality - and those two resorts in Paramaribo have a Maroon plurality (there is a substantial, and afaik growing, Maroon population in the capital).
Surinamese elections have a lot of problems, but there isn't much conclusive evidence of rigging or other foul-play in the actual voting and tallying (unlike in neighbouring Guyana...).
VHP is less Hindustani than it used to be though. It tries to broaden its appeal and These elections ‘only’ 45% of its candidates were Hindustanis. (In previous elections it was about 90%).
There were reports about Coronie (the smallest electoral district) where Haitians were brought in by bus to vote. In Coronie about 400 votes is enough for a seat. The vote total for NDP in that district magically went up from 759 in 2015 to 919 during these elections and they took the second seat in the district. Nationally the NDP got about 50,000 votes less. No hard proof but suspicious to say the least.
