Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 90.6% of votes; the other 2 candidates 9.4% between them.

    (8,441 + 5,373) ÷ 15,254 = 90.6% · 1,440 ÷ 15,254 = 9.4%
  2. Turnout of 26.9% was 6.9 pp below the state's median seat (33.8%).

    26.9 − 33.8 = −6.9

Each line is arithmetic over the figures on this page.
