Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed INC polled 42,089 votes, 1.1× the 37,407-vote margin.
42,089 ÷ 37,407 = 1.1
The top two polled 69.8% of votes; the other 9 candidates 30.2% between them.
(82,197 + 44,790) ÷ 1,81,948 = 69.8% · 54,961 ÷ 1,81,948 = 30.2%
Turnout of 58.8% was 1.7 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).
58.8 − 60.5 = −1.7
