Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 53,891 votes, 2.4× the 22,727-vote margin.

    53,891 ÷ 22,727 = 2.4

  2. The top two polled 70.2% of votes; the other 12 candidates 29.8% between them.

    (88,937 + 66,210) ÷ 2,20,983 = 70.2% · 65,836 ÷ 2,20,983 = 29.8%

  3. Turnout of 67.7% was 7.2 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    67.7 − 60.5 = +7.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 16.0 pp in 2012 to 10.3 pp.

    10.3 − 16.0 = −5.7 pp

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

    2012 SP · 2017 BJP
