Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 45,057 votes, 12× the 3,652-vote margin.

    45,057 ÷ 3,652 = 12.3

  2. The top two polled 69.1% of votes; the other 12 candidates 30.9% between them.

    (65,104 + 61,452) ÷ 1,83,113 = 69.1% · 56,557 ÷ 1,83,113 = 30.9%

  3. Turnout of 60.3% was 0.2 pp below the state's median seat (60.5%).

    60.3 − 60.5 = −0.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.6 pp in 2012 to 2.0 pp.

    2.0 − 8.6 = −6.6 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2012, INC in 2017.
