Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 14,602 votes, 8.1× the 1,793-vote margin.

    14,602 ÷ 1,793 = 8.1

  2. The top two polled 80.5% of votes; the other 3 candidates 19.5% between them.

    (36,701 + 34,908) ÷ 88,935 = 80.5% · 17,326 ÷ 88,935 = 19.5%

  3. Turnout of 83.5% was 0.4 pp below the state's median seat (83.9%).

    83.5 − 83.9 = −0.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 9.3 pp in 2011 to 2.0 pp.

    2.0 − 9.3 = −7.3 pp

  5. Rupjyoti Kurmi also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
