Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 22,144 votes, 1.0× the 21,987-vote margin.
22,144 ÷ 21,987 = 1.0
The top two polled 68.3% of votes; the other 16 candidates 31.7% between them.
(45,576 + 23,589) ÷ 1,01,193 = 68.3% · 32,028 ÷ 1,01,193 = 31.7%
Turnout of 58.5% was 8.4 pp below the state's median seat (66.9%).
58.5 − 66.9 = −8.4
The margin widened from 0.8 pp in 2003 to 21.7 pp.
