  1. The top two polled 74.9% of votes; the other 3 candidates 25.1% between them.

    (15,505 + 4,927) ÷ 27,280 = 74.9% · 6,848 ÷ 27,280 = 25.1%

  2. Turnout of 54.1% was 5.2 pp above the state's median seat (48.9%).

    54.1 − 48.9 = +5.2

Each line is arithmetic over the figures on this page.
