Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.3% of votes; the other 4 candidates 5.7% between them.

    (88,892 + 38,998) ÷ 1,35,603 = 94.3% · 7,713 ÷ 1,35,603 = 5.7%

  2. Turnout of 67.7% was 18.2 pp below the state's median seat (85.9%).

    67.7 − 85.9 = −18.2

  3. The margin widened from 0.7 pp in 2006 to 36.8 pp.

    36.8 − 0.7 = +36.1 pp

  4. AITC held the seat it won in 2006.
