Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SP polled 30,690 votes, 20× the 1,534-vote margin.

    30,690 ÷ 1,534 = 20.0

  2. The top two polled 36.2% of votes; the other 19 candidates 63.8% between them.

    (37,092 + 35,558) ÷ 2,00,721 = 36.2% · 1,28,071 ÷ 2,00,721 = 63.8%

  3. Turnout of 66.4% was 7.0 pp above the state's median seat (59.4%).

    66.4 − 59.4 = +7.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 35.0 pp in 2007 to 0.8 pp.

    0.8 − 35.0 = −34.2 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: SP in 2007, PECP in 2012.
