Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 28,568 votes, 1.7× the 16,457-vote margin.
28,568 ÷ 16,457 = 1.7
The top two polled 56.4% of votes; the other 15 candidates 43.5% between them.
(45,761 + 29,304) ÷ 1,33,196 = 56.4% · 57,996 ÷ 1,33,196 = 43.5%
Turnout of 55.5% was 13.0 pp below the state's median seat (68.5%).
55.5 − 68.5 = −13.0
The margin widened from 5.3 pp in 1998 to 12.4 pp.
12.4 − 5.3 = +7.1 pp
