Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 12,950 votes, 2.1× the 6,280-vote margin.

    12,950 ÷ 6,280 = 2.1

  2. The top two polled 91.5% of votes; the other 3 candidates 8.5% between them.

    (92,544 + 86,264) ÷ 1,95,372 = 91.5% · 16,564 ÷ 1,95,372 = 8.5%

  3. Turnout of 86.3% was 2.6 pp above the state's median seat (83.7%).

    86.3 − 83.7 = +2.6

  4. The margin widened from 0.2 pp in 2011 to 3.2 pp.

    3.2 − 0.2 = +3.0 pp

  5. AITC held the seat it won in 2011.
