Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 34,073 votes, 1.6× the 21,495-vote margin.

    34,073 ÷ 21,495 = 1.6

  2. The top two polled 57.8% of votes; the other 14 candidates 42.2% between them.

    (63,725 + 42,230) ÷ 1,83,329 = 57.8% · 77,374 ÷ 1,83,329 = 42.2%

  3. Turnout of 67.2% was 7.8 pp above the state's median seat (59.4%).

    67.2 − 59.4 = +7.8

  4. The margin widened from 1.6 pp in 2007 to 11.7 pp.

    11.7 − 1.6 = +10.1 pp

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

    2007 SP · 2012 BSP
