Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed KFDP polled 1,857 votes, 4.5× the 417-vote margin.

    1,857 ÷ 417 = 4.5

  2. The top two polled 39.8% of votes; the other 9 candidates 60.2% between them.

    (2,832 + 2,415) ÷ 13,181 = 39.8% · 7,934 ÷ 13,181 = 60.2%

  3. Turnout of 65.3% was 7.1 pp below the state's median seat (72.4%).

    65.3 − 72.4 = −7.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 6.8 pp in 1998 to 3.2 pp.

    3.2 − 6.8 = −3.6 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: UDP in 1998, INC in 2003.
