Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 43,782 votes, 1.7× the 26,203-vote margin.

    43,782 ÷ 26,203 = 1.7

  2. The top two polled 67.4% of votes; the other 14 candidates 32.6% between them.

    (78,621 + 52,418) ÷ 1,94,380 = 67.4% · 63,341 ÷ 1,94,380 = 32.6%

  3. Turnout of 55.4% was 5.1 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    55.4 − 60.5 = −5.1

  4. The margin widened from 5.2 pp in 2012 to 13.5 pp.

    13.5 − 5.2 = +8.3 pp

  5. BJP held the seat it won in 2012.
