Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 41,060 votes, 1.2× the 33,394-vote margin.

    41,060 ÷ 33,394 = 1.2

  2. The top two polled 76.3% of votes; the other 5 candidates 23.7% between them.

    (88,390 + 54,996) ÷ 1,87,964 = 76.3% · 44,578 ÷ 1,87,964 = 23.7%

  3. Turnout of 60.4% was 0.1 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    60.4 − 60.5 = −0.1

  4. The margin widened from 9.9 pp in 2012 to 17.8 pp.

    17.8 − 9.9 = +7.9 pp

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