Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.6% of votes; the other 8 candidates 8.4% between them.

    (24,333 + 17,090) ÷ 45,235 = 91.6% · 3,802 ÷ 45,235 = 8.4%

  2. Turnout of 74.9% matched the state's median seat.

    74.9 − 74.9 = 0.0

  3. The margin widened from 2.0 pp in 1998 to 16.0 pp.

    16.0 − 2.0 = +14.0 pp
