Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed GP polled 5,641 votes, 2.5× the 2,285-vote margin.
5,641 ÷ 2,285 = 2.5
The top two polled 86.1% of votes; the other 2 candidates 13.9% between them.
(18,660 + 16,375) ÷ 40,676 = 86.1% · 5,641 ÷ 40,676 = 13.9%
Turnout of 59.3% was 25.5 pp above the state's median seat (33.8%).
59.3 − 33.8 = +25.5
