Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 29,923 votes, 5.2× the 5,741-vote margin.

    29,923 ÷ 5,741 = 5.2

  2. The top two polled 70.4% of votes; the other 13 candidates 29.6% between them.

    (58,493 + 52,752) ÷ 1,58,075 = 70.4% · 46,830 ÷ 1,58,075 = 29.6%

  3. Turnout of 50.6% was 4.1 pp above the state's median seat (46.5%).

    50.6 − 46.5 = +4.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 13.5 pp in 2002 to 3.6 pp.

    3.6 − 13.5 = −9.9 pp

  5. BJP held the seat it won in 2002.
