Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 49,847 votes, 1.6× the 31,378-vote margin.

    49,847 ÷ 31,378 = 1.6

  2. The top two polled 71.9% of votes; the other 8 candidates 28.1% between them.

    (87,871 + 56,493) ÷ 2,00,780 = 71.9% · 56,416 ÷ 2,00,780 = 28.1%

  3. Turnout of 60.8% was 0.3 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    60.8 − 60.5 = +0.3

  4. The margin widened from 3.4 pp in 2012 to 15.6 pp.

    15.6 − 3.4 = +12.2 pp

  5. Shyam Prakash also won in 2012.

    2012 winner name = 2017 winner name
