Here the ToI, through eye-catching graphics, compares the *UP* poll outcomes in 2012, 2014 and 2017 - in terms of number assembly seats won/led: <http://epaperbeta.timesofindia.com/Gallery.aspx?id=12_03_2017_018_029_011&type=P&artUrl=Sequel-As-Good-Its-2014-Once-More-12032017018029&eid=31804>. %age of votes polled not indicated.
What is relevant that in all the phases the BJP has more or less maintained its position as in 2014 - way better than in 2012. In phase I, it has won 66 seats as against 68 leads in 2014, phase II - 50/49, phase III - 55/52, phase IV - 40/37, phase V - 44/44, phase VI - 32/43, phase VII - 25/35. So, its performance suffered a significant dip only in the last 2 phases. Interestingly, Modi was camping for the last three days in Varanasi for the VIIth, last, phase. Its overall vote share is 39.7% as against 42.3% in 2014. A dip of 2.6% point. In the last Bihar poll, it was 24.4% as against 29.4% in 2014. A dip of 5% points. (For details: <https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/india-unity/conversations/messages/57544>.) (And, the poll was essentially bipolar, while in UP it is triangular. That made all the difference.) For a comparison, in Punjab, 5.4% this time as against 8.7% in 2014. A dip of 3.3% points, much sharper in terms of proportion. In Uttarakhand, 39.7% as against 55.3%. Again, quite a dip. In Manipur, 36.3% as against 11.9%. The vote share has more than trebled. In Goa, 32.5% as against 53.4%. Again, quite a sharp dip.
