Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed IND polled 27,438 votes, 4.3× the 6,447-vote margin.
27,438 ÷ 6,447 = 4.3
The top two polled 54.1% of votes; the other 12 candidates 45.9% between them.
(34,873 + 28,426) ÷ 1,17,096 = 54.1% · 53,763 ÷ 1,17,096 = 45.9%
Turnout of 49.0% was 6.8 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
49.0 − 55.8 = −6.8
