Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed RJD polled 1,21,800 votes, 1.1× the 1,10,254-vote margin.

    1,21,800 ÷ 1,10,254 = 1.1

  2. The top two polled 74.0% of votes; the other 10 candidates 23.8% between them.

    (3,71,232 + 2,60,978) ÷ 8,54,800 = 74.0% · 2,03,786 ÷ 8,54,800 = 23.8%

  3. Turnout of 60.5% was 3.9 pp above the state's median seat (56.6%).

    60.5 − 56.6 = +3.9

  4. The margin widened from 9.2 pp in 2009 to 12.9 pp.

    12.9 − 9.2 = +3.7 pp

  5. Dr. Sanjay Jaiswal also won in 2009.

    2009 winner name = 2014 winner name
