Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed SP polled 55,385 votes, 1.9× the 29,400-vote margin.

    55,385 ÷ 29,400 = 1.9
  2. The top two polled 75.0% of votes; the other 6 candidates 25.0% between them.

    (1,02,244 + 72,844) ÷ 2,33,508 = 75.0% · 58,420 ÷ 2,33,508 = 25.0%
  3. Turnout of 71.3% was 10.8 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    71.3 − 60.5 = +10.8
  4. The margin widened from 1.6 pp in 2012 to 12.6 pp.

    12.6 − 1.6 = +11.0 pp
