Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 5,141 votes, 16× the 318-vote margin.

    5,141 ÷ 318 = 16.2
  2. NOTA polled 341 votes, 1.1× the winning margin of 318.

    341 ÷ 318 = 1.1
  3. The top two polled 74.0% of votes; the other 3 candidates 26.0% between them.

    (9,608 + 9,290) ÷ 25,545 = 74.0% · 6,647 ÷ 25,545 = 26.0%
  4. Turnout of 90.5% was 10.7 pp above the state's median seat (79.8%).

    90.5 − 79.8 = +10.7
  5. The margin narrowed from 2.9 pp in 2017 to 1.2 pp.

    1.2 − 2.9 = −1.7 pp
  6. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2017, IND in 2022.
