Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 36,804 votes, 11× the 3,443-vote margin.
36,804 ÷ 3,443 = 10.7
The top two polled 56.7% of votes; the other 19 candidates 43.3% between them.
(45,025 + 41,582) ÷ 1,52,717 = 56.7% · 66,110 ÷ 1,52,717 = 43.3%
Turnout of 51.7% was 5.2 pp above the state's median seat (46.5%).
51.7 − 46.5 = +5.2
