[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 3,246 votes, 2.2× the 1,457-vote margin.

    3,246 ÷ 1,457 = 2.2

  2. The top two polled 61.6% of votes; the other 5 candidates 38.4% between them.

    (7,424 + 5,967) ÷ 21,744 = 61.6% · 8,353 ÷ 21,744 = 38.4%

  3. Turnout of 41.4% was 7.6 pp above the state's median seat (33.8%).

    41.4 − 33.8 = +7.6

Each line is arithmetic over the figures on this page.
