Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.4% of votes; the other 1 candidate 6.6% between them.

    (82,597 + 69,900) ÷ 1,63,238 = 93.4% · 10,741 ÷ 1,63,238 = 6.6%

  2. Turnout of 86.5% was 0.6 pp above the state's median seat (85.9%).

    86.5 − 85.9 = +0.6

  3. The margin narrowed from 29.9 pp in 2006 to 7.8 pp.

    7.8 − 29.9 = −22.1 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: CPI in 2006, AITC in 2011.
