Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JD(U) polled 22,690 votes, 2.0× the 11,450-vote margin.

    22,690 ÷ 11,450 = 2.0

  2. The top two polled 65.1% of votes; the other 10 candidates 34.9% between them.

    (44,220 + 32,770) ÷ 1,18,283 = 65.1% · 41,284 ÷ 1,18,283 = 34.9%

  3. Turnout of 64.2% was 4.3 pp below the state's median seat (68.5%).

    64.2 − 68.5 = −4.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 22.4 pp in 1998 to 9.7 pp.

    9.7 − 22.4 = −12.7 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1998, BJP in 2003.
