Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed SP polled 44,051 votes, 1.9× the 22,873-vote margin.

    44,051 ÷ 22,873 = 1.9
  2. The top two polled 68.5% of votes; the other 6 candidates 31.5% between them.

    (71,966 + 49,093) ÷ 1,76,675 = 68.5% · 55,616 ÷ 1,76,675 = 31.5%
  3. Turnout of 47.7% was 12.8 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    47.7 − 60.5 = −12.8
  4. The margin widened from 5.5 pp in 2012 to 12.9 pp.

    12.9 − 5.5 = +7.4 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: BSP in 2012, BJP in 2017.
