Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BJP polled 22,028 votes, 19× the 1,189-vote margin.
22,028 ÷ 1,189 = 18.5
The top two polled 68.9% of votes; the other 8 candidates 31.1% between them.
(47,834 + 46,645) ÷ 1,37,189 = 68.9% · 42,710 ÷ 1,37,189 = 31.1%
Turnout of 54.0% was 1.8 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
54.0 − 55.8 = −1.8
