Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 64,327 votes, 2.8× the 23,386-vote margin.

    64,327 ÷ 23,386 = 2.8

  2. The top two polled 70.1% of votes; the other 7 candidates 29.9% between them.

    (93,702 + 70,316) ÷ 2,34,010 = 70.1% · 69,992 ÷ 2,34,010 = 29.9%

  3. Turnout of 62.0% was 1.5 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    62.0 − 60.5 = +1.5

  4. The margin widened from 3.9 pp in 2012 to 10.0 pp.

    10.0 − 3.9 = +6.1 pp

  5. Ashish Yadav, the 2012 winner, finished second in 2017.

    2012 winner name = 2017 runner-up name
