Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 71.4% of votes; the other 4 candidates 28.6% between them.

    (25,459 + 12,635) ÷ 53,389 = 71.4% · 15,295 ÷ 53,389 = 28.6%

  2. Turnout of 78.6% was 4.7 pp above the state's median seat (73.9%).

    78.6 − 73.9 = +4.7

  3. The margin widened from 7.1 pp in 2007 to 24.0 pp.

    24.0 − 7.1 = +16.9 pp
