Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BJP polled 30,188 votes, 3.8× the 7,859-vote margin.
30,188 ÷ 7,859 = 3.8
The top two polled 49.0% of votes; the other 12 candidates 51.0% between them.
(38,094 + 30,235) ÷ 1,39,548 = 49.0% · 71,218 ÷ 1,39,548 = 51.0%
Turnout of 61.9% was 6.1 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).
61.9 − 55.8 = +6.1
