Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 82.3% of votes; the other 3 candidates 17.7% between them.

    (19,101 + 12,234) ÷ 38,052 = 82.3% · 6,717 ÷ 38,052 = 17.7%

  2. Turnout of 55.6% was 1.7 pp above the state's median seat (53.9%).

    55.6 − 53.9 = +1.7

Each line is arithmetic over the figures on this page.
