Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.6% of votes; the other 7 candidates 7.4% between them.

    (1,11,407 + 77,424) ÷ 2,04,017 = 92.6% · 15,186 ÷ 2,04,017 = 7.4%

  2. Turnout of 57.5% was 3.0 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    57.5 − 60.5 = −3.0

  3. The margin widened from 1.1 pp in 2012 to 16.7 pp.

    16.7 − 1.1 = +15.6 pp

  4. Ajay Kapoor, the 2012 winner, finished second in 2017.

    2012 winner name = 2017 runner-up name
