Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed NLP polled 21,734 votes, 1.3× the 16,128-vote margin.

    21,734 ÷ 16,128 = 1.3

  2. The top two polled 44.6% of votes; the other 13 candidates 55.4% between them.

    (37,945 + 21,817) ÷ 1,33,944 = 44.6% · 74,181 ÷ 1,33,944 = 55.4%

  3. Turnout of 54.5% was 8.0 pp above the state's median seat (46.5%).

    54.5 − 46.5 = +8.0

  4. The margin widened from 7.0 pp in 2002 to 12.0 pp.

    12.0 − 7.0 = +5.0 pp

  5. BSP held the seat it won in 2002.
