Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed RKP polled 34,536 votes, 5.9× the 5,819-vote margin.
34,536 ÷ 5,819 = 5.9
The top two polled 58.7% of votes; the other 14 candidates 41.3% between them.
(43,098 + 37,279) ÷ 1,36,940 = 58.7% · 56,559 ÷ 1,36,940 = 41.3%
Turnout of 50.0% was 5.8 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
50.0 − 55.8 = −5.8
