Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 14,553 votes, 13× the 1,124-vote margin.

    14,553 ÷ 1,124 = 12.9

  2. NOTA polled 2,160 votes, 1.9× the winning margin of 1,124.

    2,160 ÷ 1,124 = 1.9

  3. The top two polled 84.6% of votes; the other 7 candidates 15.4% between them.

    (72,760 + 71,636) ÷ 1,70,659 = 84.6% · 26,263 ÷ 1,70,659 = 15.4%

  4. Turnout of 75.4% was 1.9 pp above the state's median seat (73.5%).

    75.4 − 73.5 = +1.9

  5. The margin narrowed from 5.6 pp in 2014 to 0.7 pp.

    0.7 − 5.6 = −4.9 pp

  6. The seat changed hands: BJD in 2014, BJP in 2019.
