[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 84.7% of votes; the other 4 candidates 14.2% between them.

    (31,106 + 20,743) ÷ 61,230 = 84.7% · 8,724 ÷ 61,230 = 14.2%

  2. Turnout of 67.8% was 6.6 pp below the state's median seat (74.4%).

    67.8 − 74.4 = −6.6

  3. The margin widened from 2.9 pp in 1980 to 16.9 pp.

    16.9 − 2.9 = +14.0 pp

  4. ML held the seat it won in 1980.
