[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BSP polled 10,419 votes, 1.7× the 6,281-vote margin.

    10,419 ÷ 6,281 = 1.7
  2. The top two polled 73.9% of votes; the other 13 candidates 26.0% between them.

    (27,136 + 20,855) ÷ 64,898 = 73.9% · 16,901 ÷ 64,898 = 26.0%
  3. Turnout of 57.8% was 4.9 pp below the state's median seat (62.7%).

    57.8 − 62.7 = −4.9
  4. The margin widened from 7.8 pp in 2002 to 9.7 pp.

    9.7 − 7.8 = +1.9 pp
  5. BJP held the seat it won in 2002.
