Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 25,517 votes, 16× the 1,621-vote margin.
25,517 ÷ 1,621 = 15.7
The top two polled 45.8% of votes; the other 6 candidates 54.2% between them.
(27,331 + 25,710) ÷ 1,15,774 = 45.8% · 62,732 ÷ 1,15,774 = 54.2%
Turnout of 60.5% was 4.7 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).
60.5 − 55.8 = +4.7
