Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed UGDP polled 88,839 votes, 11× the 7,850-vote margin.

    88,839 ÷ 7,850 = 11.3

  2. The top two polled 65.3% of votes; the other 6 candidates 33.7% between them.

    (1,00,090 + 92,240) ÷ 2,94,509 = 65.3% · 99,148 ÷ 2,94,509 = 33.7%

  3. Turnout of 60.7% was 0.6 pp below the state's median seat (61.3%).

    60.7 − 61.3 = −0.6

  4. The margin narrowed from 9.2 pp in 1996 to 2.7 pp.

    2.7 − 9.2 = −6.5 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: UGDP in 1996, INC in 1998.
