Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 24,313 votes, 4.8× the 5,094-vote margin.
24,313 ÷ 5,094 = 4.8
The top two polled 78.1% of votes; the other 15 candidates 21.9% between them.
(78,400 + 73,306) ÷ 1,94,201 = 78.1% · 42,495 ÷ 1,94,201 = 21.9%
Turnout of 52.9% was 7.6 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).
52.9 − 60.5 = −7.6
The margin narrowed from 13.4 pp in 2012 to 2.6 pp.
2.6 − 13.4 = −10.8 pp
Ravidas Mehrotra, the 2012 winner, finished second in 2017.
