Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.9% of votes; the other 13 candidates 8.5% between them.

    (95,948 + 79,865) ÷ 1,93,459 = 90.9% · 16,536 ÷ 1,93,459 = 8.5%

  2. Turnout of 89.5% was 3.9 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    89.5 − 93.4 = −3.9

  3. The margin narrowed from 24.2 pp in 2021 to 8.3 pp.

    8.3 − 24.2 = −15.9 pp

  4. AITC held the seat it won in 2021.
