Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed SBSP polled 10,914 votes, 7.5× the 1,464-vote margin.
10,914 ÷ 1,464 = 7.5
The top two polled 69.2% of votes; the other 15 candidates 30.8% between them.
(44,729 + 43,265) ÷ 1,27,184 = 69.2% · 39,190 ÷ 1,27,184 = 30.8%
Turnout of 43.7% was 2.8 pp below the state's median seat (46.5%).
