Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed IBP polled 5,594 votes, 2.9× the 1,939-vote margin.
5,594 ÷ 1,939 = 2.9
The top two polled 69.1% of votes; the other 7 candidates 30.9% between them.
(15,058 + 13,119) ÷ 40,774 = 69.1% · 12,597 ÷ 40,774 = 30.9%
Turnout of 50.5% was 13.1 pp below the state's median seat (63.6%).
50.5 − 63.6 = −13.1
