Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 37,512 votes, 3.5× the 10,777-vote margin.

    37,512 ÷ 10,777 = 3.5

  2. The top two polled 77.4% of votes; the other 9 candidates 22.6% between them.

    (87,851 + 77,074) ÷ 2,13,021 = 77.4% · 48,096 ÷ 2,13,021 = 22.6%

  3. Turnout of 65.6% was 5.1 pp above the state's median seat (60.5%).

    65.6 − 60.5 = +5.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 23.2 pp in 2012 to 5.1 pp.

    5.1 − 23.2 = −18.1 pp
