Third-placed IND polled 1,493 votes, 3.1× the 476-vote margin.
1,493 ÷ 476 = 3.1
The top two polled 76.2% of votes; the other 2 candidates 19.6% between them.
(4,132 + 3,656) ÷ 10,216 = 76.2% · 2,001 ÷ 10,216 = 19.6%
Turnout of 72.3% was 1.7 pp above the state's median seat (70.6%).
72.3 − 70.6 = +1.7
