Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SP polled 1,42,178 votes, 7.9× the 17,948-vote margin.

    1,42,178 ÷ 17,948 = 7.9

  2. The top two polled 62.8% of votes; the other 10 candidates 37.2% between them.

    (1,84,401 + 1,66,453) ÷ 5,58,405 = 62.8% · 2,07,551 ÷ 5,58,405 = 37.2%

  3. Turnout of 49.5% was 5.0 pp below the state's median seat (54.5%).

    49.5 − 54.5 = −5.0

  4. The margin widened from 2.6 pp in 1996 to 3.2 pp.

    3.2 − 2.6 = +0.6 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BSP in 1996, BJP in 1998.
