Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 42,301 votes, 4.0× the 10,553-vote margin.
42,301 ÷ 10,553 = 4.0
The top two polled 66.4% of votes; the other 9 candidates 33.6% between them.
(56,597 + 46,044) ÷ 1,54,501 = 66.4% · 51,860 ÷ 1,54,501 = 33.6%
Turnout of 59.3% was 3.5 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).
59.3 − 55.8 = +3.5
