Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 4,489 votes, 1.3× the 3,486-vote margin.

    4,489 ÷ 3,486 = 1.3

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

    (60,827 + 57,341) ÷ 1,22,662 = 96.3% · 4,489 ÷ 1,22,662 = 3.7%

  3. Turnout of 74.3% was 1.6 pp above the state's median seat (72.7%).

    74.3 − 72.7 = +1.6

  4. The margin narrowed from 4.2 pp in 1996 to 2.8 pp.

    2.8 − 4.2 = −1.4 pp

  5. RSP held the seat it won in 1996.
