Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 1,860 votes, 1.3× the 1,430-vote margin.
1,860 ÷ 1,430 = 1.3
The top two polled 93.8% of votes; the other 45 candidates 5.2% between them.
(37,774 + 36,344) ÷ 79,058 = 93.8% · 4,128 ÷ 79,058 = 5.2%
Turnout of 43.4% was 6.6 pp below the state's median seat (50.0%).
43.4 − 50.0 = −6.6
The margin narrowed from 3.4 pp in 1993 to 1.8 pp.
1.8 − 3.4 = −1.6 pp
Vinod Kumar Sharma, the 1993 winner, finished second in 1998.
1993 winner name = 1998 runner-up name
