Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 49,538 votes, 1.2× the 42,594-vote margin.

    49,538 ÷ 42,594 = 1.2

  2. The top two polled 69.5% of votes; the other 12 candidates 30.5% between them.

    (92,697 + 50,103) ÷ 2,05,416 = 69.5% · 62,616 ÷ 2,05,416 = 30.5%

  3. Turnout of 59.1% was 1.4 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    59.1 − 60.5 = −1.4

  4. The margin widened from 10.5 pp in 2012 to 20.7 pp.

    20.7 − 10.5 = +10.2 pp

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