Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 85.2% of votes; the other 15 candidates 14.8% between them.

    (86,220 + 47,729) ÷ 1,57,304 = 85.2% · 23,355 ÷ 1,57,304 = 14.8%
  2. Turnout of 76.7% was 3.1 pp below the state's median seat (79.8%).

    76.7 − 79.8 = −3.1
  3. The margin widened from 17.8 pp in 2006 to 24.5 pp.

    24.5 − 17.8 = +6.7 pp
