Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BSP polled 36,325 votes, 5.4× the 6,702-vote margin.

    36,325 ÷ 6,702 = 5.4
  2. The top two polled 79.8% of votes; the other 10 candidates 20.2% between them.

    (87,479 + 80,777) ÷ 2,10,771 = 79.8% · 42,515 ÷ 2,10,771 = 20.2%
  3. Turnout of 59.0% was 1.5 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    59.0 − 60.5 = −1.5
  4. The margin narrowed from 9.0 pp in 2012 to 3.2 pp.

    3.2 − 9.0 = −5.8 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2012, BJP in 2017.
