Spanish term or phrase: proporcionar al partido un plus

Context: political situation in Spain. The term appears in the following paragraph:

"En una publicación en nuestro blog del 5 de noviembre comentábamos las razones del éxito de Podemos, y notábamos como la distribución de los escaños hubiera podido proporcionar al partido un plus de 5 puntos porcentuales con respecto a la intención de voto pronosticada por Metroscopia."

This is my provisional interpretation:

"In a posting in our blog on November 5, we discussed the reasons for the success of Podemos, and we pointed out how the distribution of seats could have given the party a gain of/an extra 5 percentage points over the voting intentions predicted by Metroscopia."
