Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 45,598 votes, 2.4× the 19,157-vote margin.

    45,598 ÷ 19,157 = 2.4

  2. The top two polled 91.8% of votes; the other 8 candidates 6.7% between them.

    (5,13,004 + 4,93,847) ÷ 10,97,075 = 91.8% · 73,005 ÷ 10,97,075 = 6.7%

  3. Turnout of 57.4% was 0.2 pp above the state's median seat (57.2%).

    57.4 − 57.2 = +0.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 17.0 pp in 2019 to 1.7 pp.

    1.7 − 17.0 = −15.3 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2019, INC in 2024.
