Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BJP polled 23,052 votes, 1.3× the 17,862-vote margin.
23,052 ÷ 17,862 = 1.3
The top two polled 58.0% of votes; the other 17 candidates 41.7% between them.
(44,347 + 26,485) ÷ 1,22,192 = 58.0% · 50,956 ÷ 1,22,192 = 41.7%
Turnout of 40.9% was 5.6 pp below the state's median seat (46.5%).
40.9 − 46.5 = −5.6
The margin widened from 2.6 pp in 2002 to 14.6 pp.
