Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 97.3% of votes; the other 6 candidates 2.7% between them.

    (1,16,811 + 31,606) ÷ 1,52,586 = 97.3% · 4,169 ÷ 1,52,586 = 2.7%

  2. Turnout of 65.2% was 4.3 pp below the state's median seat (69.5%).

    65.2 − 69.5 = −4.3

  3. The margin widened from 50.7 pp in 2012 to 55.8 pp.

    55.8 − 50.7 = +5.1 pp
