[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BSP polled 45,490 votes, 1.8× the 24,865-vote margin.

    45,490 ÷ 24,865 = 1.8
  2. The top two polled 71.7% of votes; the other 13 candidates 28.3% between them.

    (85,989 + 61,124) ÷ 2,05,253 = 71.7% · 58,140 ÷ 2,05,253 = 28.3%
  3. Turnout of 55.7% was 4.8 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    55.7 − 60.5 = −4.8
  4. The margin widened from 2.8 pp in 2012 to 12.1 pp.

    12.1 − 2.8 = +9.3 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2012, BJP in 2017.
