Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 18,945 votes, 83× the 229-vote margin.

    18,945 ÷ 229 = 82.7

  2. NOTA polled 7,026 votes, 31× the winning margin of 229.

    7,026 ÷ 229 = 30.7

  3. The top two polled 71.7% of votes; the other 3 candidates 28.3% between them.

    (45,211 + 44,982) ÷ 1,25,852 = 71.7% · 35,659 ÷ 1,25,852 = 28.3%

  4. Turnout of 72.4% was 1.1 pp below the state's median seat (73.5%).

    72.4 − 73.5 = −1.1

  5. The margin narrowed from 18.7 pp in 2014 to 0.2 pp.

    0.2 − 18.7 = −18.5 pp

  6. Kailash Chandra Kulesika, the 2014 winner, finished second in 2019.

    2014 winner name = 2019 runner-up name
