Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AD polled 21,756 votes, 17× the 1,290-vote margin.

    21,756 ÷ 1,290 = 16.9

  2. The top two polled 60.6% of votes; the other 23 candidates 39.4% between them.

    (54,796 + 53,506) ÷ 1,78,764 = 60.6% · 70,462 ÷ 1,78,764 = 39.4%

  3. Turnout of 53.8% was 5.6 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    53.8 − 59.4 = −5.6

  4. The margin narrowed from 2.7 pp in 2007 to 0.7 pp.

    0.7 − 2.7 = −2.0 pp

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