Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 4,571 votes, 6.4× the 715-vote margin.

    4,571 ÷ 715 = 6.4

  2. The top two polled 51.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 48.1% between them.

    (6,022 + 5,307) ÷ 21,846 = 51.9% · 10,517 ÷ 21,846 = 48.1%

  3. Turnout of 33.7% was 0.1 pp below the state's median seat (33.8%).

    33.7 − 33.8 = −0.1

Each line is arithmetic over the figures on this page.
