Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 77.9% of votes; the other 18 candidates 22.1% between them.

    (74,623 + 58,889) ÷ 1,71,385 = 77.9% · 37,873 ÷ 1,71,385 = 22.1%

  2. Turnout of 78.1% was 0.6 pp above the state's median seat (77.5%).

    78.1 − 77.5 = +0.6

  3. The margin widened from 4.7 pp in 2013 to 9.2 pp.

    9.2 − 4.7 = +4.5 pp
