Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed PPP polled 17,001 votes, 1.8× the 9,255-vote margin.

    17,001 ÷ 9,255 = 1.8

  2. The top two polled 79.3% of votes; the other 7 candidates 20.7% between them.

    (55,108 + 45,853) ÷ 1,27,363 = 79.3% · 26,402 ÷ 1,27,363 = 20.7%

  3. Turnout of 82.5% was 2.8 pp above the state's median seat (79.7%).

    82.5 − 79.7 = +2.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 10.1 pp in 2007 to 7.3 pp.

    7.3 − 10.1 = −2.8 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 2007.
