Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BDJS polled 28,097 votes, 1.4× the 20,634-vote margin.

    28,097 ÷ 20,634 = 1.4

  2. The top two polled 81.0% of votes; the other 6 candidates 19.0% between them.

    (74,985 + 54,351) ÷ 1,59,676 = 81.0% · 30,340 ÷ 1,59,676 = 19.0%

  3. Turnout of 83.6% was 6.1 pp above the state's median seat (77.5%).

    83.6 − 77.5 = +6.1

  4. The margin widened from 7.9 pp in 2011 to 12.9 pp.

    12.9 − 7.9 = +5.0 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 2011.
