Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed INC polled 17,534 votes, 1.8× the 9,638-vote margin.
17,534 ÷ 9,638 = 1.8
The top two polled 71.0% of votes; the other 9 candidates 29.0% between them.
(42,803 + 33,165) ÷ 1,06,942 = 71.0% · 30,968 ÷ 1,06,942 = 29.0%
Turnout of 47.8% was 1.3 pp above the state's median seat (46.5%).
47.8 − 46.5 = +1.3
