Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 40,998 votes, 2.7× the 15,024-vote margin.
40,998 ÷ 15,024 = 2.7
The top two polled 74.6% of votes; the other 13 candidates 25.4% between them.
(80,806 + 65,782) ÷ 1,96,426 = 74.6% · 49,838 ÷ 1,96,426 = 25.4%
Turnout of 59.2% was 1.3 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).
59.2 − 60.5 = −1.3
The margin widened from 0.2 pp in 2012 to 7.6 pp.
