Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed RLD polled 34,993 votes, 3.5× the 9,871-vote margin.
34,993 ÷ 9,871 = 3.5
The top two polled 59.4% of votes; the other 9 candidates 40.6% between them.
(48,624 + 38,753) ÷ 1,46,976 = 59.4% · 59,599 ÷ 1,46,976 = 40.6%
Turnout of 53.4% was 6.9 pp above the state's median seat (46.5%).
53.4 − 46.5 = +6.9
