Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 1,79,530 votes, 1.2× the 1,49,685-vote margin.

    1,79,530 ÷ 1,49,685 = 1.2

  2. The top two polled 79.2% of votes; the other 7 candidates 19.1% between them.

    (5,78,870 + 4,29,185) ÷ 12,72,070 = 79.2% · 2,43,087 ÷ 12,72,070 = 19.1%

  3. Turnout of 86.7% was 3.7 pp above the state's median seat (83.0%).

    86.7 − 83.0 = +3.7

  4. The margin narrowed from 12.3 pp in 2009 to 11.8 pp.

    11.8 − 12.3 = −0.5 pp

  5. Susmita Bauri, the 2009 winner, finished second in 2014.

    2009 winner name = 2014 runner-up name
