Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 21,276 votes, 3.0× the 7,060-vote margin.

    21,276 ÷ 7,060 = 3.0

  2. The top two polled 38.9% of votes; the other 28 candidates 61.1% between them.

    (31,513 + 24,453) ÷ 1,43,888 = 38.9% · 87,922 ÷ 1,43,888 = 61.1%

  3. Turnout of 50.4% was 9.0 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    50.4 − 59.4 = −9.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 11.4 pp in 2007 to 4.9 pp.

    4.9 − 11.4 = −6.5 pp

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