Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SP polled 41,477 votes, 3.6× the 11,678-vote margin.

    41,477 ÷ 11,678 = 3.6

  2. The top two polled 54.6% of votes; the other 12 candidates 45.4% between them.

    (58,254 + 46,576) ÷ 1,91,961 = 54.6% · 87,131 ÷ 1,91,961 = 45.4%

  3. Turnout of 56.1% was 4.4 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    56.1 − 60.5 = −4.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.9 pp in 2012 to 6.1 pp.

    6.1 − 8.9 = −2.8 pp

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