Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 42,593 votes, 2.6× the 16,098-vote margin.

    42,593 ÷ 16,098 = 2.6

  2. The top two polled 62.0% of votes; the other 7 candidates 38.0% between them.

    (68,291 + 52,193) ÷ 1,94,328 = 62.0% · 73,844 ÷ 1,94,328 = 38.0%

  3. Turnout of 77.6% was 4.1 pp above the state's median seat (73.5%).

    77.6 − 73.5 = +4.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 8.8 pp in 2014 to 8.3 pp.

    8.3 − 8.8 = −0.5 pp

  5. BJD held the seat it won in 2014.
