Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed AAP polled 18,617 votes, 1.7× the 11,048-vote margin.
18,617 ÷ 11,048 = 1.7
The top two polled 77.5% of votes; the other 3 candidates 22.5% between them.
(38,067 + 27,019) ÷ 84,011 = 77.5% · 18,925 ÷ 84,011 = 22.5%
Turnout of 54.1% was 6.7 pp below the state's median seat (60.8%).
54.1 − 60.8 = −6.7
