Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 24,912 votes, 1.5× the 16,142-vote margin.

    24,912 ÷ 16,142 = 1.5

  2. The top two polled 80.6% of votes; the other 4 candidates 19.4% between them.

    (83,688 + 67,546) ÷ 1,87,732 = 80.6% · 36,498 ÷ 1,87,732 = 19.4%

  3. Turnout of 80.3% was 3.4 pp below the state's median seat (83.7%).

    80.3 − 83.7 = −3.4

  4. The margin widened from 7.9 pp in 2011 to 8.6 pp.

    8.6 − 7.9 = +0.7 pp

  5. Purna Chandra Bauri also won in 2011.

    2011 winner name = 2016 winner name
