Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.4% of votes; the other 4 candidates 4.6% between them.

    (71,421 + 51,019) ÷ 1,28,367 = 95.4% · 5,927 ÷ 1,28,367 = 4.6%

  2. Turnout of 74.2% was 1.1 pp below the state's median seat (75.3%).

    74.2 − 75.3 = −1.1

  3. The margin narrowed from 19.7 pp in 2006 to 15.9 pp.

    15.9 − 19.7 = −3.8 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: RSP in 2006, KEC(B) in 2011.

    2006 RSP · 2011 KEC(B)
