Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed NTK polled 73,652 votes, 1.4× the 53,784-vote margin.
73,652 ÷ 53,784 = 1.4
The top two polled 85.6% of votes; the other 19 candidates 13.7% between them.
(5,61,589 + 5,07,805) ÷ 12,49,568 = 85.6% · 1,71,642 ÷ 12,49,568 = 13.7%
Turnout of 79.7% was 8.7 pp above the state's median seat (71.0%).
79.7 − 71.0 = +8.7
The margin narrowed from 33.2 pp in 2019 to 4.3 pp.
