Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed INC polled 16,230 votes, 1.1× the 14,489-vote margin.
16,230 ÷ 14,489 = 1.1
The top two polled 85.6% of votes; the other 12 candidates 14.4% between them.
(92,498 + 78,009) ÷ 1,99,240 = 85.6% · 28,733 ÷ 1,99,240 = 14.4%
Turnout of 62.3% was 2.0 pp above the state's median seat (60.3%).
62.3 − 60.3 = +2.0
The margin widened from 2.0 pp in 2017 to 7.3 pp.
7.3 − 2.0 = +5.3 pp
