Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.2% of votes; the other 4 candidates 6.8% between them.

    (84,036 + 72,581) ÷ 1,67,955 = 93.2% · 11,338 ÷ 1,67,955 = 6.8%

  2. Turnout of 86.7% was 3.0 pp above the state's median seat (83.7%).

    86.7 − 83.7 = +3.0

  3. The margin narrowed from 12.8 pp in 2011 to 6.8 pp.

    6.8 − 12.8 = −6.0 pp

  4. AITC held the seat it won in 2011.
