Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BJP polled 36,826 votes, 8.4× the 4,386-vote margin.

    36,826 ÷ 4,386 = 8.4

  2. The top two polled 49.8% of votes; the other 13 candidates 50.2% between them.

    (44,367 + 39,981) ÷ 1,69,508 = 49.8% · 85,108 ÷ 1,69,508 = 50.2%

  3. Turnout of 57.1% was 1.3 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).

    57.1 − 55.8 = +1.3
