Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 72.8% of votes; the other 5 candidates 27.2% between them.

    (4,36,961 + 2,25,656) ÷ 9,10,198 = 72.8% · 2,47,534 ÷ 9,10,198 = 27.2%
  2. Turnout of 68.8% was 2.1 pp above the state's median seat (66.7%).

    68.8 − 66.7 = +2.1
  3. The margin widened from 1.8 pp in 2004 to 23.2 pp.

    23.2 − 1.8 = +21.4 pp
