He&#8217;d got 5.2 lakh votes against the BJP candidate&#8217;s 4.3 lakh \u2014 margin being just over 94,000 votes. This was much below the margin of 3.6 lakh with which he&#8217;d won in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Samajwadi Party has won every Lok Sabha poll in Mainpuri since 1996, when Mulayam Singh Yadav won it first. He won it four consecutive times starting with 2004. In beteeen, stand-in candidates from his party won in 1998, 1999 and in a bypoll in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Of the five assembly segments that form this Lok Sabha seat, the Samajwadi Party won three and BJP got two in the assembly elections earlier this year.
