Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed LKD polled 39,029 votes, 1.5× the 25,759-vote margin.

    39,029 ÷ 25,759 = 1.5
  2. The top two polled 59.4% of votes; the other 10 candidates 40.6% between them.

    (79,110 + 53,351) ÷ 2,22,851 = 59.4% · 90,390 ÷ 2,22,851 = 40.6%
  3. Turnout of 57.2% was 3.3 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    57.2 − 60.5 = −3.3
  4. The margin widened from 2.5 pp in 2012 to 11.6 pp.

    11.6 − 2.5 = +9.1 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: BSP in 2012, BJP in 2017.
