Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI polled 2,335 votes, 1.1× the 2,139-vote margin.

    2,335 ÷ 2,139 = 1.1

  2. The top two polled 90.2% of votes; the other 2 candidates 9.8% between them.

    (21,923 + 19,784) ÷ 46,262 = 90.2% · 4,555 ÷ 46,262 = 9.8%

  3. Turnout of 73.4% was 2.7 pp below the state's median seat (76.1%).

    73.4 − 76.1 = −2.7

Each line is arithmetic over the figures on this page.
