Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 75.7% of votes; the other 7 candidates 24.3% between them.

    (52,847 + 37,186) ÷ 1,18,896 = 75.7% · 28,863 ÷ 1,18,896 = 24.3%
  2. Turnout of 60.7% was 6.2 pp below the state's median seat (66.9%).

    60.7 − 66.9 = −6.2
  3. The margin widened from 0.7 pp in 2004 to 13.2 pp.

    13.2 − 0.7 = +12.5 pp
