Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.9% of votes; the other 10 candidates 3.1% between them.

    (80,142 + 74,406) ÷ 1,59,505 = 96.9% · 4,957 ÷ 1,59,505 = 3.1%

  2. Turnout of 69.8% was 0.3 pp above the state's median seat (69.5%).

    69.8 − 69.5 = +0.3

  3. The margin widened from 2.8 pp in 2012 to 3.6 pp.

    3.6 − 2.8 = +0.8 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2012, INC in 2017.
