Arithmetic · working shown

The top two polled 81.1% of votes; the other 32 candidates 18.7% between them.
(4,08,651 + 3,00,748) ÷ 8,74,625 = 81.1% · 1,63,442 ÷ 8,74,625 = 18.7%
Turnout of 52.4% was 5.8 pp below the state's median seat (58.2%).
52.4 − 58.2 = −5.8
The margin narrowed from 57.2 pp in 2009 to 12.3 pp.
12.3 − 57.2 = −44.9 pp
