Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.3% of votes; the other 3 candidates 3.7% between them.

    (27,323 + 16,908) ÷ 45,915 = 96.3% · 1,684 ÷ 45,915 = 3.7%

  2. Turnout of 64.3% was 9.6 pp below the state's median seat (73.9%).

    64.3 − 73.9 = −9.6

  3. The margin widened from 10.6 pp in 2009 to 22.7 pp.

    22.7 − 10.6 = +12.1 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 2009, BJP in 2012.
