Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 27,367 votes, 1.1× the 26,007-vote margin.
27,367 ÷ 26,007 = 1.1
The top two polled 65.1% of votes; the other 8 candidates 34.9% between them.
(54,073 + 28,066) ÷ 1,26,179 = 65.1% · 44,002 ÷ 1,26,179 = 34.9%
Turnout of 53.1% was 2.7 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
53.1 − 55.8 = −2.7
