Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 1,31,834 votes, 2.6× the 50,775-vote margin.

    1,31,834 ÷ 50,775 = 2.6

  2. The top two polled 69.0% of votes; the other 7 candidates 31.0% between them.

    (2,56,695 + 2,05,920) ÷ 6,70,002 = 69.0% · 2,07,387 ÷ 6,70,002 = 31.0%

  3. Turnout of 56.4% was 1.9 pp above the state's median seat (54.5%).

    56.4 − 54.5 = +1.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 7.8 pp in 1996 to 7.6 pp.

    7.6 − 7.8 = −0.2 pp

  5. BJP held the seat it won in 1996.
