Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 91.0% of votes; the other 6 candidates 9.0% between them.

    (92,835 + 63,745) ÷ 1,72,154 = 91.0% · 15,574 ÷ 1,72,154 = 9.0%
  2. Turnout of 80.1% was 5.8 pp below the state's median seat (85.9%).

    80.1 − 85.9 = −5.8
  3. The margin narrowed from 35.6 pp in 2006 to 16.9 pp.

    16.9 − 35.6 = −18.7 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: AIFB in 2006, AITC in 2011.
