Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 77.0% of votes; the other 9 candidates 21.1% between them.

    (93,924 + 32,897) ÷ 1,64,704 = 77.0% · 34,695 ÷ 1,64,704 = 21.1%

  2. Turnout of 54.1% was 16.1 pp below the state's median seat (70.2%).

    54.1 − 70.2 = −16.1

  3. The margin widened from 22.0 pp in 1992 to 37.1 pp.

    37.1 − 22.0 = +15.1 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 1992, SAD in 1997.
