Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 40,207 votes, 7.3× the 5,495-vote margin.
40,207 ÷ 5,495 = 7.3
The top two polled 76.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 23.1% between them.
(83,350 + 77,855) ÷ 2,09,605 = 76.9% · 48,400 ÷ 2,09,605 = 23.1%
Turnout of 57.7% was 2.6 pp below the state's median seat (60.3%).
57.7 − 60.3 = −2.6
The margin narrowed from 13.1 pp in 2017 to 2.6 pp.
