Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 26,224 votes, 3.6× the 7,256-vote margin.

    26,224 ÷ 7,256 = 3.6

  2. The top two polled 62.0% of votes; the other 14 candidates 38.0% between them.

    (44,108 + 36,852) ÷ 1,30,671 = 62.0% · 49,710 ÷ 1,30,671 = 38.0%

  3. Turnout of 56.2% was 0.4 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).

    56.2 − 55.8 = +0.4
