Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed IND polled 1,943 votes, 1.1× the 1,785-vote margin.
1,943 ÷ 1,785 = 1.1
The top two polled 96.2% of votes; the other 1 candidate 3.8% between them.
(25,249 + 23,464) ÷ 50,656 = 96.2% · 1,943 ÷ 50,656 = 3.8%
Turnout of 61.9% was 13.4 pp above the state's median seat (48.5%).
61.9 − 48.5 = +13.4
