Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 50,421 votes, 1.9× the 26,613-vote margin.

    50,421 ÷ 26,613 = 1.9

  2. The top two polled 72.5% of votes; the other 12 candidates 27.5% between them.

    (93,912 + 67,299) ÷ 2,22,319 = 72.5% · 61,108 ÷ 2,22,319 = 27.5%

  3. Turnout of 58.4% was 2.1 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    58.4 − 60.5 = −2.1

  4. The margin widened from 4.2 pp in 2012 to 12.0 pp.

    12.0 − 4.2 = +7.8 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2012, BJP in 2017.

    2012 SP · 2017 BJP
