Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed SP polled 46,601 votes, 4.6× the 10,208-vote margin.
46,601 ÷ 10,208 = 4.6
The top two polled 68.4% of votes; the other 4 candidates 31.6% between them.
(59,524 + 49,316) ÷ 1,59,188 = 68.4% · 50,348 ÷ 1,59,188 = 31.6%
Turnout of 49.5% was 11.0 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).
49.5 − 60.5 = −11.0
