Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed SP polled 32,309 votes, 3.3× the 9,863-vote margin.

    32,309 ÷ 9,863 = 3.3
  2. The top two polled 55.4% of votes; the other 22 candidates 44.6% between them.

    (57,926 + 48,063) ÷ 1,91,433 = 55.4% · 85,444 ÷ 1,91,433 = 44.6%
  3. Turnout of 58.9% was 0.5 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    58.9 − 59.4 = −0.5
  4. The margin narrowed from 11.8 pp in 2007 to 5.2 pp.

    5.2 − 11.8 = −6.6 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: BSP in 2007, BJP in 2012.
