Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 67.8% of votes; the other 12 candidates 30.5% between them.

    (3,64,011 + 2,46,218) ÷ 9,00,114 = 67.8% · 2,74,370 ÷ 9,00,114 = 30.5%

  2. Turnout of 61.8% was 5.2 pp above the state's median seat (56.6%).

    61.8 − 56.6 = +5.2

  3. The margin narrowed from 30.7 pp in 2009 to 13.1 pp.

    13.1 − 30.7 = −17.6 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: JD(U) in 2009, BJP in 2014.
