Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 90.7% of votes; the other 11 candidates 9.3% between them.

    (1,12,751 + 58,819) ÷ 1,89,245 = 90.7% · 17,675 ÷ 1,89,245 = 9.3%

  2. Turnout of 83.4% was 3.6 pp above the state's median seat (79.8%).

    83.4 − 79.8 = +3.6

  3. The margin widened from 9.1 pp in 2006 to 28.5 pp.

    28.5 − 9.1 = +19.4 pp
