Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed BJP polled 45,604 votes, 2.2× the 20,970-vote margin.

    45,604 ÷ 20,970 = 2.2
  2. The top two polled 68.9% of votes; the other 12 candidates 30.6% between them.

    (70,755 + 49,785) ÷ 1,74,927 = 68.9% · 53,559 ÷ 1,74,927 = 30.6%
  3. Turnout of 76.8% was 9.8 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).

    76.8 − 86.6 = −9.8
  4. INC held the seat it won in 2024.
