Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 95.4% of votes; the other 7 candidates 3.7% between them.

    (38,105 + 14,262) ÷ 54,884 = 95.4% · 2,030 ÷ 54,884 = 3.7%

  2. Turnout of 57.1% was 7.1 pp above the state's median seat (50.0%).

    57.1 − 50.0 = +7.1

  3. The margin widened from 2.9 pp in 1993 to 43.4 pp.

    43.4 − 2.9 = +40.5 pp

  4. Haroon Yusuf also won in 1993.

    1993 winner name = 1998 winner name
