Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI(ML)L polled 77,743 votes, 1.7× the 46,438-vote margin.

    77,743 ÷ 46,438 = 1.7

  2. The top two polled 87.3% of votes; the other 12 candidates 12.8% between them.

    (4,00,063 + 3,53,625) ÷ 8,63,788 = 87.3% · 1,10,155 ÷ 8,63,788 = 12.8%

  3. Turnout of 69.3% was 11.7 pp above the state's median seat (57.6%).

    69.3 − 57.6 = +11.7

  4. The margin widened from 2.9 pp in 1999 to 5.4 pp.

    5.4 − 2.9 = +2.5 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BJP in 1999, RJD in 2004.
