Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed SP polled 17,505 votes, 16× the 1,089-vote margin.

    17,505 ÷ 1,089 = 16.1
  2. The top two polled 70.2% of votes; the other 11 candidates 29.8% between them.

    (48,502 + 47,413) ÷ 1,36,640 = 70.2% · 40,725 ÷ 1,36,640 = 29.8%
  3. Turnout of 41.9% was 4.6 pp below the state's median seat (46.5%).

    41.9 − 46.5 = −4.6
  4. The margin narrowed from 20.2 pp in 2002 to 0.8 pp.

    0.8 − 20.2 = −19.4 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2002, UPUDF in 2007.
