Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 6,664 votes, 2.1× the 3,208-vote margin.

    6,664 ÷ 3,208 = 2.1

  2. The top two polled 80.7% of votes; the other 5 candidates 19.3% between them.

    (22,672 + 19,464) ÷ 52,227 = 80.7% · 10,091 ÷ 52,227 = 19.3%

  3. Turnout of 69.3% was 4.6 pp below the state's median seat (73.9%).

    69.3 − 73.9 = −4.6

  4. The margin narrowed from 17.6 pp in 2007 to 6.1 pp.

    6.1 − 17.6 = −11.5 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2007, INC in 2012.
