[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 86.0% of votes; the other 5 candidates 12.4% between them.

    (42,279 + 19,768) ÷ 72,131 = 86.0% · 8,968 ÷ 72,131 = 12.4%
  2. Turnout of 60.9% was 4.9 pp above the state's median seat (56.0%).

    60.9 − 56.0 = +4.9
  3. The margin widened from 1.0 pp in 1985 to 31.2 pp.

    31.2 − 1.0 = +30.2 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 1985, JD in 1990.
