Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.3% of votes; the other 3 candidates 5.7% between them.

    (92,454 + 75,448) ÷ 1,78,008 = 94.3% · 10,106 ÷ 1,78,008 = 5.7%

  2. Turnout of 84.8% was 1.1 pp below the state's median seat (85.9%).

    84.8 − 85.9 = −1.1

  3. The margin widened from 5.7 pp in 2006 to 9.6 pp.

    9.6 − 5.7 = +3.9 pp

  4. AITC held the seat it won in 2006.
