Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 23,135 votes, 2.1× the 11,179-vote margin.
23,135 ÷ 11,179 = 2.1
The top two polled 87.7% of votes; the other 5 candidates 12.3% between them.
(1,01,096 + 89,917) ÷ 2,17,791 = 87.7% · 26,778 ÷ 2,17,791 = 12.3%
Turnout of 57.6% was 2.7 pp below the state's median seat (60.3%).
57.6 − 60.3 = −2.7
The margin narrowed from 7.8 pp in 2017 to 5.1 pp.
5.1 − 7.8 = −2.7 pp
