Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 35,798 votes, 1.2× the 31,039-vote margin.

    35,798 ÷ 31,039 = 1.2

  2. The top two polled 57.7% of votes; the other 12 candidates 42.3% between them.

    (75,005 + 43,966) ÷ 2,06,102 = 57.7% · 87,131 ÷ 2,06,102 = 42.3%

  3. Turnout of 64.3% was 4.9 pp above the state's median seat (59.4%).

    64.3 − 59.4 = +4.9

  4. The margin widened from 5.1 pp in 2007 to 15.1 pp.

    15.1 − 5.1 = +10.0 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BSP in 2007, BJP in 2012.
