[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 3,020 votes, 1.2× the 2,526-vote margin.

    3,020 ÷ 2,526 = 1.2

  2. The top two polled 90.3% of votes; the other 4 candidates 9.7% between them.

    (37,354 + 34,828) ÷ 79,909 = 90.3% · 7,717 ÷ 79,909 = 9.7%

  3. Turnout of 66.2% was 1.2 pp below the state's median seat (67.4%).

    66.2 − 67.4 = −1.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 25.7 pp in 1997 to 3.2 pp.

    3.2 − 25.7 = −22.5 pp

  5. SAD held the seat it won in 1997.

    1997 SAD · 2002 SAD
