Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 74.2% of votes; the other 6 candidates 25.8% between them.

    (92,776 + 47,598) ÷ 1,89,059 = 74.2% · 48,685 ÷ 1,89,059 = 25.8%

  2. Turnout of 61.2% was 0.7 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    61.2 − 60.5 = +0.7

  3. The margin widened from 0.4 pp in 2012 to 23.9 pp.

    23.9 − 0.4 = +23.5 pp

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