Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed NPC polled 2,215 votes, 111× the 20-vote margin.
2,215 ÷ 20 = 110.8
The top two polled 76.2% of votes; the other 1 candidate 22.8% between them.
(3,713 + 3,693) ÷ 9,719 = 76.2% · 2,215 ÷ 9,719 = 22.8%
Turnout of 93.9% was 3.2 pp above the state's median seat (90.7%).
93.9 − 90.7 = +3.2
The margin narrowed from 3.8 pp in 1987 to 0.2 pp.
0.2 − 3.8 = −3.6 pp
