Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed ICS polled 4,618 votes, 4.8× the 963-vote margin.

    4,618 ÷ 963 = 4.8

  2. The top two polled 83.1% of votes; the other 13 candidates 15.7% between them.

    (22,606 + 21,643) ÷ 53,235 = 83.1% · 8,366 ÷ 53,235 = 15.7%

  3. Turnout of 50.4% was 0.4 pp above the state's median seat (50.0%).

    50.4 − 50.0 = +0.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 38.1 pp in 1993 to 1.8 pp.

    1.8 − 38.1 = −36.3 pp

  5. Naresh Gaur also won in 1993.

    1993 winner name = 1998 winner name
