Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed INC polled 31,122 votes, 3.3× the 9,308-vote margin.

    31,122 ÷ 9,308 = 3.3
  2. The top two polled 52.5% of votes; the other 20 candidates 47.5% between them.

    (42,551 + 33,243) ÷ 1,44,351 = 52.5% · 68,557 ÷ 1,44,351 = 47.5%
  3. Turnout of 48.5% was 10.9 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    48.5 − 59.4 = −10.9
  4. The margin widened from 0.7 pp in 2007 to 6.4 pp.

    6.4 − 0.7 = +5.7 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: BSP in 2007, BJP in 2012.

    2007 BSP · 2012 BJP
