Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 7,183 votes, 1.7× the 4,223-vote margin.

    7,183 ÷ 4,223 = 1.7

  2. The top two polled 79.3% of votes; the other 11 candidates 18.5% between them.

    (47,912 + 43,689) ÷ 1,15,565 = 79.3% · 21,336 ÷ 1,15,565 = 18.5%

  3. Turnout of 60.9% was 13.5 pp below the state's median seat (74.4%).

    60.9 − 74.4 = −13.5

  4. The margin narrowed from 36.0 pp in 1990 to 3.7 pp.

    3.7 − 36.0 = −32.3 pp

  5. JD held the seat it won in 1990.
