Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 11,204 votes, 3.7× the 3,066-vote margin.

    11,204 ÷ 3,066 = 3.7

  2. The top two polled 88.7% of votes; the other 4 candidates 11.3% between them.

    (57,216 + 54,150) ÷ 1,25,504 = 88.7% · 14,138 ÷ 1,25,504 = 11.3%

  3. Turnout of 66.0% was 0.9 pp below the state's median seat (66.9%).

    66.0 − 66.9 = −0.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 5.1 pp in 2004 to 2.4 pp.

    2.4 − 5.1 = −2.7 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 2004, BJD in 2009.
