Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 27,181 votes, 2.5× the 11,012-vote margin.

    27,181 ÷ 11,012 = 2.5

  2. The top two polled 66.4% of votes; the other 14 candidates 33.6% between them.

    (64,746 + 53,734) ÷ 1,78,495 = 66.4% · 60,015 ÷ 1,78,495 = 33.6%

  3. Turnout of 50.2% was 9.2 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    50.2 − 59.4 = −9.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 13.6 pp in 2007 to 6.2 pp.

    6.2 − 13.6 = −7.4 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: RLD in 2007, SP in 2012.

    2007 RLD · 2012 SP
