Why did Amri's supporters become stronger?

1.

Radak: It is because he intermarried with (married his daughter to) Yehoshafat.

2)

Why does it say "Es ha'Am"?

1.

Radak: This is like Min ha'Am. Also "k'Tzeisi Es ha'Ir" (Shemos 9:29, is like Min ha'Ir).

2.

Kli Yakar #1: They tricked the people with Tivni (pretended to support him), so that his supporters would share their inner thoughts.

3.

Kli Yakar #2: Those with Amri were leaning to switch and support Tivni (but he died).

3)

How did Tivni die?

1.

Rashi (citing Seder Olam): When Asa married Amri's daughter to Asa's son Yehoshafat, they killed Tivni, when they saw Amri's importance.

2.

Radak: He died naturally, and Amri became king without opposition.
