Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 28,851 votes, 1.3× the 21,753-vote margin.

    28,851 ÷ 21,753 = 1.3

  2. The top two polled 64.5% of votes; the other 23 candidates 35.5% between them.

    (63,052 + 41,299) ÷ 1,61,890 = 64.5% · 57,539 ÷ 1,61,890 = 35.5%

  3. Turnout of 50.5% was 8.9 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    50.5 − 59.4 = −8.9

  4. The margin widened from 4.8 pp in 2007 to 13.4 pp.

    13.4 − 4.8 = +8.6 pp

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