Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.4% of votes; the other 9 candidates 7.6% between them.

    (42,410 + 30,668) ÷ 79,053 = 92.4% · 5,975 ÷ 79,053 = 7.6%

  2. Turnout of 84.0% was 2.4 pp above the state's median seat (81.6%).

    84.0 − 81.6 = +2.4

  3. The margin narrowed from 27.5 pp in 1982 to 14.9 pp.

    14.9 − 27.5 = −12.6 pp
