[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed INC polled 29,583 votes, 5.5× the 5,426-vote margin.

    29,583 ÷ 5,426 = 5.5
  2. The top two polled 64.3% of votes; the other 3 candidates 35.7% between them.

    (35,320 + 29,894) ÷ 1,01,387 = 64.3% · 36,171 ÷ 1,01,387 = 35.7%
  3. Turnout of 57.3% was 1.9 pp below the state's median seat (59.2%).

    57.3 − 59.2 = −1.9
  4. The margin narrowed from 13.2 pp in 1998 to 5.4 pp.

    5.4 − 13.2 = −7.8 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1998, IND in 2000.
