Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 84.7% of votes; the other 8 candidates 14.4% between them.

    (34,194 + 17,261) ÷ 60,730 = 84.7% · 8,753 ÷ 60,730 = 14.4%

  2. Turnout of 55.5% was 5.5 pp above the state's median seat (50.0%).

    55.5 − 50.0 = +5.5

  3. The margin widened from 13.1 pp in 1993 to 27.9 pp.

    27.9 − 13.1 = +14.8 pp

  4. INC held the seat it won in 1993.
