Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed LJP polled 26,642 votes, 3.8× the 6,993-vote margin.
26,642 ÷ 6,993 = 3.8
The top two polled 64.5% of votes; the other 12 candidates 35.5% between them.
(47,957 + 40,964) ÷ 1,37,844 = 64.5% · 48,918 ÷ 1,37,844 = 35.5%
Turnout of 55.2% was 0.6 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
55.2 − 55.8 = −0.6
