Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed GGP polled 97,197 votes, 1.1× the 88,089-vote margin.

    97,197 ÷ 88,089 = 1.1

  2. The top two polled 49.3% of votes; the other 8 candidates 50.8% between them.

    (1,93,982 + 1,05,893) ÷ 6,08,869 = 49.3% · 3,09,446 ÷ 6,08,869 = 50.8%

  3. Turnout of 60.9% was 12.2 pp above the state's median seat (48.7%).

    60.9 − 48.7 = +12.2

  4. The margin widened from 10.6 pp in 1999 to 14.5 pp.

    14.5 − 10.6 = +3.9 pp

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