Arithmetic · working shown

The top two polled 87.0% of votes; the other 19 candidates 12.7% between them.
(4,74,712 + 2,51,766) ÷ 8,35,079 = 87.0% · 1,06,323 ÷ 8,35,079 = 12.7%
Turnout of 51.8% was 6.4 pp below the state's median seat (58.2%).
51.8 − 58.2 = −6.4
The margin widened from 3.7 pp in 2009 to 26.7 pp.
26.7 − 3.7 = +23.0 pp
