Arithmetic · working shown

  1. AGP converted 29.7% of votes into 48.8% of seats, a seat premium of 19.1 pp.

    62 ÷ 127 = 48.8% · 48.8 − 29.7 = +19.1

  2. BJP polled 10.4% of votes, the 3rd-highest share, but won 4 seats (3.1%).

    4 ÷ 127 = 3.1% · 3.1 − 10.4 = −7.3

  3. Moran was decided by 262 votes, the closest of 122 seats; Katlicherra had the widest margin, 34,470.

    min / max of margin over 122 seats with a recorded margin

  5. In SC-reserved seats AGP won 5 of 7 (71.4%), against 48.8% of all seats.

    5 ÷ 7 = 71.4% · 62 ÷ 127 = 48.8%
