Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 32,121 votes, 1.7× the 19,003-vote margin.

    32,121 ÷ 19,003 = 1.7
  2. The top two polled 48.0% of votes; the other 18 candidates 52.0% between them.

    (53,011 + 34,008) ÷ 1,81,246 = 48.0% · 94,227 ÷ 1,81,246 = 52.0%
  3. Turnout of 58.3% was 1.1 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    58.3 − 59.4 = −1.1
  4. The margin narrowed from 12.4 pp in 2007 to 10.5 pp.

    10.5 − 12.4 = −1.9 pp
  5. BSP held the seat it won in 2007.
