Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SP polled 54,196 votes, 24× the 2,227-vote margin.

    54,196 ÷ 2,227 = 24.3

  2. The top two polled 71.1% of votes; the other 6 candidates 28.9% between them.

    (72,715 + 70,488) ÷ 2,01,523 = 71.1% · 58,320 ÷ 2,01,523 = 28.9%

  3. Turnout of 52.6% was 7.9 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    52.6 − 60.5 = −7.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 6.2 pp in 2012 to 1.1 pp.

    1.1 − 6.2 = −5.1 pp

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