Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 1,08,878 votes, 40× the 2,734-vote margin.

    1,08,878 ÷ 2,734 = 39.8

  2. The top two polled 78.9% of votes; the other 16 candidates 21.1% between them.

    (2,65,505 + 2,62,771) ÷ 6,69,251 = 78.9% · 1,40,975 ÷ 6,69,251 = 21.1%

  3. Turnout of 60.4% was 5.9 pp above the state's median seat (54.5%).

    60.4 − 54.5 = +5.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 7.5 pp in 1996 to 0.4 pp.

    0.4 − 7.5 = −7.1 pp

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