Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed INC polled 44,659 votes, 12× the 3,613-vote margin.

    44,659 ÷ 3,613 = 12.4
  2. The top two polled 67.9% of votes; the other 22 candidates 32.1% between them.

    (70,820 + 67,207) ÷ 2,03,150 = 67.9% · 65,123 ÷ 2,03,150 = 32.1%
  3. Turnout of 58.6% was 0.8 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    58.6 − 59.4 = −0.8
  4. The margin narrowed from 10.9 pp in 2007 to 1.8 pp.

    1.8 − 10.9 = −9.1 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2007, BJP in 2012.

    2007 SP · 2012 BJP
