Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BSP polled 2,33,971 votes, 3.7× the 63,086-vote margin.

    2,33,971 ÷ 63,086 = 3.7
  2. The top two polled 65.1% of votes; the other 12 candidates 34.1% between them.

    (3,24,016 + 2,60,930) ÷ 8,98,655 = 65.1% · 3,05,996 ÷ 8,98,655 = 34.1%
  3. Turnout of 54.1% was 4.1 pp below the state's median seat (58.2%).

    54.1 − 58.2 = −4.1
  4. The margin widened from 6.1 pp in 2009 to 7.0 pp.

    7.0 − 6.1 = +0.9 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: BSP in 2009, BJP in 2014.
