Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 26,088 votes, 3.0× the 8,556-vote margin.

    26,088 ÷ 8,556 = 3.0

  2. The top two polled 47.7% of votes; the other 14 candidates 52.3% between them.

    (43,058 + 34,502) ÷ 1,62,625 = 47.7% · 85,064 ÷ 1,62,625 = 52.3%

  3. Turnout of 65.7% was 9.9 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).

    65.7 − 55.8 = +9.9
