[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 93.6% of votes; the other 6 candidates 6.4% between them.

    (69,916 + 57,586) ÷ 1,36,199 = 93.6% · 8,697 ÷ 1,36,199 = 6.4%
  2. Turnout of 81.2% was 5.9 pp above the state's median seat (75.3%).

    81.2 − 75.3 = +5.9
  3. The margin widened from 2.7 pp in 2006 to 9.1 pp.

    9.1 − 2.7 = +6.4 pp
  4. INC held the seat it won in 2006.
