Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 45,075 votes, 1.2× the 37,880-vote margin.
45,075 ÷ 37,880 = 1.2
The top two polled 82.5% of votes; the other 6 candidates 17.5% between them.
(1,34,513 + 96,633) ÷ 2,80,256 = 82.5% · 49,110 ÷ 2,80,256 = 17.5%
Turnout of 75.2% was 14.9 pp above the state's median seat (60.3%).
75.2 − 60.3 = +14.9
