Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 1,78,535 votes, 4.0× the 44,485-vote margin.

    1,78,535 ÷ 44,485 = 4.0

  2. The top two polled 67.0% of votes; the other 12 candidates 33.0% between them.

    (2,63,011 + 2,18,526) ÷ 7,19,099 = 67.0% · 2,37,562 ÷ 7,19,099 = 33.0%

  3. Turnout of 63.4% was 3.2 pp above the state's median seat (60.2%).

    63.4 − 60.2 = +3.2

  4. The margin widened from 3.5 pp in 1996 to 6.2 pp.

    6.2 − 3.5 = +2.7 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BSP in 1996, BJP in 1998.
