Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed MGP polled 36,872 votes, 1.5× the 25,292-vote margin.
36,872 ÷ 25,292 = 1.5
The top two polled 70.7% of votes; the other 19 candidates 28.0% between them.
(1,09,346 + 84,054) ÷ 2,73,466 = 70.7% · 76,442 ÷ 2,73,466 = 28.0%
Turnout of 56.8% was 0.5 pp above the state's median seat (56.3%).
56.8 − 56.3 = +0.5
The margin narrowed from 35.9 pp in 1991 to 9.2 pp.
9.2 − 35.9 = −26.7 pp
