Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed IND polled 23,290 votes, 1.7× the 13,759-vote margin.
23,290 ÷ 13,759 = 1.7
The top two polled 91.7% of votes; the other 14 candidates 8.3% between them.
(3,55,335 + 3,41,576) ÷ 7,60,085 = 91.7% · 63,109 ÷ 7,60,085 = 8.3%
Turnout of 57.9% was 9.9 pp above the state's median seat (48.0%).
57.9 − 48.0 = +9.9
The margin narrowed from 4.4 pp in 2004 to 1.8 pp.
1.8 − 4.4 = −2.6 pp
