Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 51,633 votes, 5.2× the 9,844-vote margin.
51,633 ÷ 9,844 = 5.2
The top two polled 74.8% of votes; the other 8 candidates 25.2% between them.
(94,022 + 84,178) ÷ 2,38,111 = 74.8% · 59,911 ÷ 2,38,111 = 25.2%
Turnout of 55.7% was 4.6 pp below the state's median seat (60.3%).
55.7 − 60.3 = −4.6
The margin narrowed from 6.8 pp in 2017 to 4.1 pp.
4.1 − 6.8 = −2.7 pp
