Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BJP polled 2,14,125 votes, 1.1× the 1,92,486-vote margin.
2,14,125 ÷ 1,92,486 = 1.1
The top two polled 68.0% of votes; the other 25 candidates 31.0% between them.
(4,92,883 + 3,00,397) ÷ 11,66,156 = 68.0% · 3,61,894 ÷ 11,66,156 = 31.0%
Turnout of 71.8% was 0.8 pp above the state's median seat (71.0%).
71.8 − 71.0 = +0.8
The margin widened from 13.5 pp in 2019 to 16.5 pp.
16.5 − 13.5 = +3.0 pp
