Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 11,020 votes, 1.0× the 10,853-vote margin.

    11,020 ÷ 10,853 = 1.0

  2. The top two polled 71.6% of votes; the other 11 candidates 28.4% between them.

    (29,160 + 18,307) ÷ 66,332 = 71.6% · 18,857 ÷ 66,332 = 28.4%

  3. Turnout of 50.8% was 16.6 pp below the state's median seat (67.4%).

    50.8 − 67.4 = −16.6

  4. The margin widened from 4.7 pp in 1997 to 16.4 pp.

    16.4 − 4.7 = +11.7 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 1997.
