Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 28,578 votes, 10× the 2,731-vote margin.
28,578 ÷ 2,731 = 10.5
The top two polled 62.8% of votes; the other 10 candidates 37.2% between them.
(42,312 + 39,581) ÷ 1,30,376 = 62.8% · 48,483 ÷ 1,30,376 = 37.2%
Turnout of 57.1% was 1.3 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).
57.1 − 55.8 = +1.3
