Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 8,443 votes, 4.1× the 2,075-vote margin.
8,443 ÷ 2,075 = 4.1
The top two polled 77.4% of votes; the other 19 candidates 22.6% between them.
(37,705 + 35,630) ÷ 94,687 = 77.4% · 21,352 ÷ 94,687 = 22.6%
Turnout of 33.9% was 21.9 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
33.9 − 55.8 = −21.9
