Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 71,791 votes, 2.1× the 34,179-vote margin.

    71,791 ÷ 34,179 = 2.1

  2. The top two polled 63.3% of votes; the other 13 candidates 36.7% between them.

    (1,08,506 + 74,327) ÷ 2,88,921 = 63.3% · 1,06,088 ÷ 2,88,921 = 36.7%

  3. Turnout of 58.0% was 2.5 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    58.0 − 60.5 = −2.5

  4. The margin widened from 3.6 pp in 2012 to 11.8 pp.

    11.8 − 3.6 = +8.2 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2012, BJP in 2017.

    2012 SP · 2017 BJP
