Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 1,41,329 votes, 6.3× the 22,327-vote margin.

    1,41,329 ÷ 22,327 = 6.3

  2. The top two polled 45.2% of votes; the other 13 candidates 54.8% between them.

    (1,64,202 + 1,41,875) ÷ 6,76,950 = 45.2% · 3,70,873 ÷ 6,76,950 = 54.8%

  3. Turnout of 49.5% was 1.8 pp above the state's median seat (47.7%).

    49.5 − 47.7 = +1.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.6 pp in 2004 to 3.3 pp.

    3.3 − 8.6 = −5.3 pp

  5. RJD held the seat it won in 2004.
