Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 45,622 votes, 15× the 2,991-vote margin.

    45,622 ÷ 2,991 = 15.3
  2. The top two polled 63.2% of votes; the other 22 candidates 36.8% between them.

    (52,616 + 49,625) ÷ 1,61,722 = 63.2% · 59,481 ÷ 1,61,722 = 36.8%
  3. Turnout of 72.6% was 4.9 pp below the state's median seat (77.5%).

    72.6 − 77.5 = −4.9
  4. The margin widened from 0.4 pp in 2013 to 1.8 pp.

    1.8 − 0.4 = +1.4 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: BJP in 2013, INC in 2018.
