Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 23,383 votes, 3.2× the 7,282-vote margin.

    23,383 ÷ 7,282 = 3.2

  2. The top two polled 86.0% of votes; the other 2 candidates 14.0% between them.

    (81,330 + 74,048) ÷ 1,80,660 = 86.0% · 25,282 ÷ 1,80,660 = 14.0%

  3. Turnout of 76.2% was 7.5 pp below the state's median seat (83.7%).

    76.2 − 83.7 = −7.5

  4. The margin narrowed from 22.4 pp in 2011 to 4.0 pp.

    4.0 − 22.4 = −18.4 pp

  5. Muzaffar Khan, the 2011 winner, finished second in 2016.

    2011 winner name = 2016 runner-up name
