Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 3,220 votes, 1.3× the 2,477-vote margin.

    3,220 ÷ 2,477 = 1.3

  2. The top two polled 92.9% of votes; the other 11 candidates 7.1% between them.

    (65,793 + 63,316) ÷ 1,39,038 = 92.9% · 9,928 ÷ 1,39,038 = 7.1%

  3. Turnout of 54.8% was 8.3 pp above the state's median seat (46.5%).

    54.8 − 46.5 = +8.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 5.6 pp in 2002 to 1.8 pp.

    1.8 − 5.6 = −3.8 pp

  5. Rakesh Sachan, the 2002 winner, finished second in 2007.

    2002 winner name = 2007 runner-up name
