Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed INC polled 23,462 votes, 1.0× the 23,413-vote margin.
23,462 ÷ 23,413 = 1.0
The top two polled 63.9% of votes; the other 12 candidates 36.1% between them.
(48,739 + 25,326) ÷ 1,15,988 = 63.9% · 41,923 ÷ 1,15,988 = 36.1%
Turnout of 37.0% was 18.8 pp below the state's median seat (55.8%).
37.0 − 55.8 = −18.8
