Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 29,223 votes, 1.4× the 20,403-vote margin.
29,223 ÷ 20,403 = 1.4
The top two polled 81.3% of votes; the other 12 candidates 18.7% between them.
(90,362 + 69,959) ÷ 1,97,117 = 81.3% · 36,796 ÷ 1,97,117 = 18.7%
Turnout of 59.0% was 1.5 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).
