Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.8% of votes; the other 10 candidates 6.2% between them.

    (68,463 + 45,573) ÷ 1,24,274 = 91.8% · 7,721 ÷ 1,24,274 = 6.2%

  2. Turnout of 77.1% was 14.1 pp above the state's median seat (63.0%).

    77.1 − 63.0 = +14.1

  3. The margin narrowed from 34.6 pp in 1995 to 18.4 pp.

    18.4 − 34.6 = −16.2 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: JD in 1995, RJD in 2000.
