Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed SIKKIM polled 6,189 votes, 3.6× the 1,718-vote margin.
6,189 ÷ 1,718 = 3.6
The top two polled 81.8% of votes; the other 1 candidate 18.2% between them.
(14,797 + 13,079) ÷ 34,065 = 81.8% · 6,189 ÷ 34,065 = 18.2%
Turnout of 54.2% was 4.1 pp above the state's median seat (50.1%).
54.2 − 50.1 = +4.1
The margin narrowed from 29.4 pp in 1962 to 5.0 pp.
