Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SP polled 51,585 votes, 1.7× the 29,889-vote margin.

    51,585 ÷ 29,889 = 1.7

  2. The top two polled 62.3% of votes; the other 24 candidates 37.7% between them.

    (83,144 + 53,255) ÷ 2,18,833 = 62.3% · 82,434 ÷ 2,18,833 = 37.7%

  3. Turnout of 56.1% was 3.3 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    56.1 − 59.4 = −3.3

  4. The margin widened from 0.8 pp in 2007 to 13.7 pp.

    13.7 − 0.8 = +12.9 pp

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