Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JD polled 30,796 votes, 5.4× the 5,738-vote margin.

    30,796 ÷ 5,738 = 5.4

  2. The top two polled 57.4% of votes; the other 6 candidates 41.3% between them.

    (38,188 + 32,450) ÷ 1,23,030 = 57.4% · 50,790 ÷ 1,23,030 = 41.3%

  3. Turnout of 79.4% was 5.0 pp above the state's median seat (74.4%).

    79.4 − 74.4 = +5.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 40.1 pp in 1990 to 4.7 pp.

    4.7 − 40.1 = −35.4 pp

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