Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 22,141 votes, 3.5× the 6,320-vote margin.

    22,141 ÷ 6,320 = 3.5

  2. The top two polled 83.3% of votes; the other 7 candidates 16.7% between them.

    (63,966 + 57,646) ÷ 1,46,053 = 83.3% · 24,441 ÷ 1,46,053 = 16.7%

  3. Turnout of 67.1% was 6.4 pp below the state's median seat (73.5%).

    67.1 − 73.5 = −6.4

  4. The margin widened from 3.9 pp in 2014 to 4.3 pp.

    4.3 − 3.9 = +0.4 pp

  5. BJD held the seat it won in 2014.
