Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 38,711 votes, 1.9× the 20,876-vote margin.
38,711 ÷ 20,876 = 1.9
The top two polled 78.9% of votes; the other 8 candidates 21.1% between them.
(1,04,771 + 83,895) ÷ 2,39,067 = 78.9% · 50,401 ÷ 2,39,067 = 21.1%
Turnout of 63.4% was 3.1 pp above the state's median seat (60.3%).
63.4 − 60.3 = +3.1
The margin narrowed from 12.4 pp in 2017 to 8.7 pp.
