[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BJP polled 15,384 votes, 1.5× the 10,018-vote margin.
15,384 ÷ 10,018 = 1.5
The top two polled 72.2% of votes; the other 14 candidates 27.7% between them.
(48,396 + 38,378) ÷ 1,20,116 = 72.2% · 33,324 ÷ 1,20,116 = 27.7%
Turnout of 51.6% was 4.2 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
51.6 − 55.8 = −4.2
