Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 21,048 votes, 4.1× the 5,188-vote margin.

    21,048 ÷ 5,188 = 4.1

  2. The top two polled 73.3% of votes; the other 6 candidates 26.7% between them.

    (48,131 + 42,943) ÷ 1,24,269 = 73.3% · 33,195 ÷ 1,24,269 = 26.7%

  3. Turnout of 69.1% was 2.2 pp above the state's median seat (66.9%).

    69.1 − 66.9 = +2.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.5 pp in 2004 to 4.2 pp.

    4.2 − 8.5 = −4.3 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2004, BJD in 2009.
