Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BSP polled 73,680 votes, 7.1× the 10,366-vote margin.

    73,680 ÷ 10,366 = 7.1
  2. The top two polled 81.8% of votes; the other 16 candidates 18.2% between them.

    (2,64,734 + 2,54,368) ÷ 6,34,962 = 81.8% · 1,15,860 ÷ 6,34,962 = 18.2%
  3. Turnout of 58.1% was 3.6 pp above the state's median seat (54.5%).

    58.1 − 54.5 = +3.6
  4. The margin narrowed from 8.1 pp in 1996 to 1.6 pp.

    1.6 − 8.1 = −6.5 pp
  5. SP held the seat it won in 1996.
