Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 17,605 votes, 1.3× the 13,330-vote margin.
17,605 ÷ 13,330 = 1.3
The top two polled 82.8% of votes; the other 3 candidates 17.2% between them.
(57,050 + 43,720) ÷ 1,21,736 = 82.8% · 20,963 ÷ 1,21,736 = 17.2%
Turnout of 55.5% was 0.3 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
55.5 − 55.8 = −0.3
