Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BJP polled 19,929 votes, 1.3× the 14,960-vote margin.
19,929 ÷ 14,960 = 1.3
The top two polled 60.1% of votes; the other 10 candidates 39.6% between them.
(36,742 + 21,782) ÷ 97,356 = 60.1% · 38,563 ÷ 97,356 = 39.6%
Turnout of 34.1% was 12.4 pp below the state's median seat (46.5%).
34.1 − 46.5 = −12.4
The margin widened from 11.6 pp in 2002 to 15.4 pp.
15.4 − 11.6 = +3.8 pp
