Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 34,968 votes, 1.5× the 23,548-vote margin.

    34,968 ÷ 23,548 = 1.5

  2. The top two polled 70.7% of votes; the other 9 candidates 29.3% between them.

    (69,536 + 45,988) ÷ 1,63,493 = 70.7% · 47,969 ÷ 1,63,493 = 29.3%

  3. Turnout of 57.0% was 3.5 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    57.0 − 60.5 = −3.5

  4. The margin narrowed from 18.0 pp in 2012 to 14.4 pp.

    14.4 − 18.0 = −3.6 pp

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