Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 41,111 votes, 2.5× the 16,188-vote margin.

    41,111 ÷ 16,188 = 2.5

  2. The top two polled 68.7% of votes; the other 7 candidates 31.3% between them.

    (60,264 + 44,076) ÷ 1,51,834 = 68.7% · 47,494 ÷ 1,51,834 = 31.3%

  3. Turnout of 73.4% was 0.1 pp below the state's median seat (73.5%).

    73.4 − 73.5 = −0.1

  4. The margin widened from 1.0 pp in 2014 to 10.7 pp.

    10.7 − 1.0 = +9.7 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 2014, BJP in 2019.
