Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed BSP polled 13,296 votes, 1.2× the 11,076-vote margin.
13,296 ÷ 11,076 = 1.2
The top two polled 59.9% of votes; the other 10 candidates 39.9% between them.
(25,949 + 14,873) ÷ 68,100 = 59.9% · 27,167 ÷ 68,100 = 39.9%
Turnout of 65.5% was 2.8 pp above the state's median seat (62.7%).
65.5 − 62.7 = +2.8
