Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 2,26,562 votes, 2.2× the 1,02,094-vote margin.

    2,26,562 ÷ 1,02,094 = 2.2

  2. The top two polled 70.3% of votes; the other 13 candidates 29.2% between them.

    (3,62,866 + 2,60,772) ÷ 8,86,920 = 70.3% · 2,59,016 ÷ 8,86,920 = 29.2%

  3. Turnout of 76.1% was 2.8 pp below the state's median seat (79.0%).

    76.1 − 79.0 = −2.8

  4. The margin widened from 1.2 pp in 2009 to 11.5 pp.

    11.5 − 1.2 = +10.3 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 2009, AIUDF in 2014.
