Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed ACNCD polled 40,204 votes, 2.2× the 17,945-vote margin.

    40,204 ÷ 17,945 = 2.2

  2. The top two polled 85.0% of votes; the other 2 candidates 15.0% between them.

    (1,54,476 + 1,36,531) ÷ 3,42,205 = 85.0% · 51,180 ÷ 3,42,205 = 15.0%

  3. Turnout of 67.7% was 2.7 pp above the state's median seat (65.0%).

    67.7 − 65.0 = +2.7

  4. The margin narrowed from 28.2 pp in 2006 to 5.2 pp.

    5.2 − 28.2 = −23.0 pp

  5. NCP held the seat it won in 2006.
