Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JD polled 26,809 votes, 2.2× the 12,126-vote margin.

    26,809 ÷ 12,126 = 2.2

  2. The top two polled 65.1% of votes; the other 13 candidates 32.3% between them.

    (40,567 + 28,441) ÷ 1,05,984 = 65.1% · 34,251 ÷ 1,05,984 = 32.3%

  3. Turnout of 80.6% was 6.2 pp above the state's median seat (74.4%).

    80.6 − 74.4 = +6.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 13.2 pp in 1990 to 11.4 pp.

    11.4 − 13.2 = −1.8 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: JD in 1990, INC in 1995.
