Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 28,482 votes, 9.4× the 3,039-vote margin.

    28,482 ÷ 3,039 = 9.4

  2. The top two polled 66.7% of votes; the other 6 candidates 33.3% between them.

    (46,138 + 43,099) ÷ 1,33,857 = 66.7% · 44,620 ÷ 1,33,857 = 33.3%

  3. Turnout of 68.7% was 1.8 pp above the state's median seat (66.9%).

    68.7 − 66.9 = +1.8

  4. The margin widened from 0.8 pp in 2004 to 2.3 pp.

    2.3 − 0.8 = +1.5 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BJD in 2004, INC in 2009.

    2004 BJD · 2009 INC
