Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed INC polled 26,577 votes, 14× the 1,844-vote margin.
26,577 ÷ 1,844 = 14.4
The top two polled 40.5% of votes; the other 13 candidates 59.5% between them.
(31,816 + 29,972) ÷ 1,52,499 = 40.5% · 90,710 ÷ 1,52,499 = 59.5%
Turnout of 59.3% was 3.5 pp above the state's median seat (55.8%).
59.3 − 55.8 = +3.5
