Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 35,623 votes, 1.6× the 22,732-vote margin.

    35,623 ÷ 22,732 = 1.6

  2. The top two polled 60.7% of votes; the other 19 candidates 39.3% between them.

    (62,622 + 39,890) ÷ 1,69,019 = 60.7% · 66,507 ÷ 1,69,019 = 39.3%

  3. Turnout of 50.9% was 8.5 pp below the state's median seat (59.4%).

    50.9 − 59.4 = −8.5

  4. The margin widened from 12.2 pp in 2007 to 13.4 pp.

    13.4 − 12.2 = +1.2 pp

  5. SP held the seat it won in 2007.
