Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 39,689 votes, 206× the 193-vote margin.

    39,689 ÷ 193 = 205.6

  2. NOTA polled 1,090 votes, 5.6× the winning margin of 193.

    1,090 ÷ 193 = 5.6

  3. The top two polled 67.8% of votes; the other 12 candidates 32.2% between them.

    (69,035 + 68,842) ÷ 2,03,315 = 67.8% · 65,438 ÷ 2,03,315 = 32.2%

  4. Turnout of 69.1% was 8.6 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    69.1 − 60.5 = +8.6

  5. The margin narrowed from 7.5 pp in 2012 to 0.1 pp.

    0.1 − 7.5 = −7.4 pp

  6. The seat changed hands: BSP in 2012, BJP in 2017.
