[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BSP polled 38,667 votes, 1.3× the 29,855-vote margin.

    38,667 ÷ 29,855 = 1.3
  2. The top two polled 66.9% of votes; the other 13 candidates 33.1% between them.

    (72,455 + 42,600) ÷ 1,71,945 = 66.9% · 56,890 ÷ 1,71,945 = 33.1%
  3. Turnout of 55.1% was 5.4 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    55.1 − 60.5 = −5.4
  4. The margin widened from 4.3 pp in 2012 to 17.4 pp.

    17.4 − 4.3 = +13.1 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2012, BJP in 2017.
