Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed SAP polled 13,852 votes, 3.4× the 4,121-vote margin.
13,852 ÷ 4,121 = 3.4
The top two polled 73.9% of votes; the other 12 candidates 26.1% between them.
(53,213 + 49,092) ÷ 1,38,458 = 73.9% · 36,125 ÷ 1,38,458 = 26.1%
Turnout of 54.0% was 1.8 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
54.0 − 55.8 = −1.8
