Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 2,49,693 votes, 4.2× the 59,672-vote margin.

    2,49,693 ÷ 59,672 = 4.2

  2. The top two polled 62.5% of votes; the other 10 candidates 35.3% between them.

    (3,32,927 + 2,73,255) ÷ 9,70,528 = 62.5% · 3,42,350 ÷ 9,70,528 = 35.3%

  3. Turnout of 63.6% was 7.0 pp above the state's median seat (56.6%).

    63.6 − 56.6 = +7.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 23.8 pp in 2009 to 6.1 pp.

    6.1 − 23.8 = −17.7 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: JD(U) in 2009, INC in 2014.
