Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 29,962 votes, 2.2× the 13,719-vote margin.

    29,962 ÷ 13,719 = 2.2

  2. The top two polled 70.2% of votes; the other 3 candidates 29.8% between them.

    (47,092 + 33,373) ÷ 1,14,644 = 70.2% · 34,150 ÷ 1,14,644 = 29.8%

  3. Turnout of 68.9% was 3.8 pp below the state's median seat (72.7%).

    68.9 − 72.7 = −3.8

  4. The margin widened from 5.9 pp in 1996 to 12.0 pp.

    12.0 − 5.9 = +6.1 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: JD in 1996, KC(M) in 2001.

    1996 JD · 2001 KC(M)
