Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 24,513 votes, 3.4× the 7,198-vote margin.
24,513 ÷ 7,198 = 3.4
The top two polled 57.3% of votes; the other 12 candidates 42.7% between them.
(36,403 + 29,205) ÷ 1,14,536 = 57.3% · 48,926 ÷ 1,14,536 = 42.7%
Turnout of 42.4% was 4.1 pp below the state's median seat (46.5%).
42.4 − 46.5 = −4.1
