Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed AIADMK polled 16,507 votes, 2.3× the 7,140-vote margin.
16,507 ÷ 7,140 = 2.3
The top two polled 84.4% of votes; the other 24 candidates 15.1% between them.
(62,992 + 55,852) ÷ 1,40,741 = 84.4% · 21,254 ÷ 1,40,741 = 15.1%
Turnout of 84.4% was 2.2 pp below the state's median seat (86.6%).
84.4 − 86.6 = −2.2
