Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 35,534 votes, 16× the 2,175-vote margin.
35,534 ÷ 2,175 = 16.3
The top two polled 57.1% of votes; the other 14 candidates 42.8% between them.
(45,579 + 43,404) ÷ 1,55,922 = 57.1% · 66,697 ÷ 1,55,922 = 42.8%
Turnout of 62.9% was 7.1 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).
62.9 − 55.8 = +7.1
