Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 22,115 votes, 4.0× the 5,509-vote margin.
22,115 ÷ 5,509 = 4.0
The top two polled 81.9% of votes; the other 12 candidates 18.1% between them.
(83,735 + 78,226) ÷ 1,97,824 = 81.9% · 35,863 ÷ 1,97,824 = 18.1%
Turnout of 57.6% was 2.7 pp below the state's median seat (60.3%).
57.6 − 60.3 = −2.7
The margin narrowed from 31.2 pp in 2017 to 2.8 pp.
2.8 − 31.2 = −28.4 pp
