Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 89.6% of votes; the other 11 candidates 10.4% between them.

    (63,814 + 48,605) ÷ 1,25,498 = 89.6% · 13,079 ÷ 1,25,498 = 10.4%

  2. Turnout of 58.7% was 10.8 pp below the state's median seat (69.5%).

    58.7 − 69.5 = −10.8

  3. The margin narrowed from 12.8 pp in 2014 to 12.1 pp.

    12.1 − 12.8 = −0.7 pp
