Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 47,471 votes, 2.8× the 16,730-vote margin.

    47,471 ÷ 16,730 = 2.8

  2. The top two polled 71.3% of votes; the other 11 candidates 28.7% between them.

    (76,509 + 59,779) ÷ 1,91,162 = 71.3% · 54,874 ÷ 1,91,162 = 28.7%

  3. Turnout of 60.9% was 0.4 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    60.9 − 60.5 = +0.4

  4. The margin widened from 0.5 pp in 2012 to 8.8 pp.

    8.8 − 0.5 = +8.3 pp

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

    2012 winner name = 2017 runner-up name
