Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 43,200 votes, 4.2× the 10,186-vote margin.

    43,200 ÷ 10,186 = 4.2

  2. The top two polled 59.8% of votes; the other 12 candidates 40.2% between them.

    (67,470 + 57,284) ÷ 2,08,517 = 59.8% · 83,763 ÷ 2,08,517 = 40.2%

  3. Turnout of 51.4% was 8.0 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    51.4 − 59.4 = −8.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.8 pp in 2007 to 4.9 pp.

    4.9 − 8.8 = −3.9 pp

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