[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BJP polled 26,444 votes, 2.0× the 12,988-vote margin.
26,444 ÷ 12,988 = 2.0
The top two polled 54.8% of votes; the other 14 candidates 45.2% between them.
(40,460 + 27,472) ÷ 1,24,075 = 54.8% · 56,127 ÷ 1,24,075 = 45.2%
Turnout of 43.2% was 12.6 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
43.2 − 55.8 = −12.6
