Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 1,81,202 votes, 86× the 2,100-vote margin.
1,81,202 ÷ 2,100 = 86.3
The top two polled 61.4% of votes; the other 16 candidates 38.6% between them.
(1,97,149 + 1,95,049) ÷ 6,38,806 = 61.4% · 2,46,608 ÷ 6,38,806 = 38.6%
Turnout of 53.0% was 1.5 pp below the state's median seat (54.5%).
53.0 − 54.5 = −1.5
The margin narrowed from 7.4 pp in 1996 to 0.3 pp.
0.3 − 7.4 = −7.1 pp
