Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed UC polled 41,562 votes, 5.4× the 7,647-vote margin.

    41,562 ÷ 7,647 = 5.4

  2. The top two polled 50.7% of votes; the other 3 candidates 44.4% between them.

    (50,515 + 42,868) ÷ 1,84,295 = 50.7% · 81,881 ÷ 1,84,295 = 44.4%

  3. Turnout of 37.5% was 5.9 pp below the state's median seat (43.4%).

    37.5 − 43.4 = −5.9
