Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed SP polled 58,773 votes, 4.5× the 13,030-vote margin.

    58,773 ÷ 13,030 = 4.5
  2. The top two polled 70.0% of votes; the other 11 candidates 30.0% between them.

    (90,309 + 77,279) ÷ 2,39,256 = 70.0% · 71,668 ÷ 2,39,256 = 30.0%
  3. Turnout of 62.3% was 1.8 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    62.3 − 60.5 = +1.8
  4. The margin narrowed from 8.1 pp in 2012 to 5.4 pp.

    5.4 − 8.1 = −2.7 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2012, BSP in 2017.
