Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 85.5% of votes; the other 9 candidates 10.8% between them.

    (4,58,398 + 4,03,153) ÷ 10,07,395 = 85.5% · 1,09,086 ÷ 10,07,395 = 10.8%
  2. Turnout of 68.4% was 6.8 pp below the state's median seat (75.2%).

    68.4 − 75.2 = −6.8
  3. The margin widened from 4.3 pp in 2019 to 5.5 pp.

    5.5 − 4.3 = +1.2 pp
