Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 25,704 votes, 1.7× the 15,440-vote margin.

    25,704 ÷ 15,440 = 1.7

  2. The top two polled 86.6% of votes; the other 9 candidates 13.4% between them.

    (1,13,752 + 98,312) ÷ 2,44,739 = 86.6% · 32,675 ÷ 2,44,739 = 13.4%

  3. Turnout of 66.1% was 5.6 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    66.1 − 60.5 = +5.6

  4. The margin narrowed from 12.5 pp in 2012 to 6.3 pp.

    6.3 − 12.5 = −6.2 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2012, BJP in 2017.
