Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 5,075 votes, 2.6× the 1,969-vote margin.

    5,075 ÷ 1,969 = 2.6

  2. The top two polled 90.4% of votes; the other 12 candidates 9.6% between them.

    (41,891 + 39,922) ÷ 90,547 = 90.4% · 8,734 ÷ 90,547 = 9.6%

  3. Turnout of 63.4% was 5.2 pp above the state's median seat (58.2%).

    63.4 − 58.2 = +5.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 9.7 pp in 2003 to 2.2 pp.

    2.2 − 9.7 = −7.5 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 2003.
