Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 17,113 votes, 2.9× the 5,863-vote margin.

    17,113 ÷ 5,863 = 2.9

  2. The top two polled 72.7% of votes; the other 13 candidates 27.3% between them.

    (43,963 + 38,100) ÷ 1,12,884 = 72.7% · 30,798 ÷ 1,12,884 = 27.3%

  3. Turnout of 39.3% was 7.2 pp below the state's median seat (46.5%).

    39.3 − 46.5 = −7.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 5.5 pp in 2002 to 5.2 pp.

    5.2 − 5.5 = −0.3 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2002, RLD in 2007.
