Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed PPP polled 29,385 votes, 4.6× the 6,448-vote margin.

    29,385 ÷ 6,448 = 4.6

  2. The top two polled 70.5% of votes; the other 5 candidates 29.5% between them.

    (51,504 + 45,056) ÷ 1,36,933 = 70.5% · 40,373 ÷ 1,36,933 = 29.5%

  3. Turnout of 83.7% was 4.0 pp above the state's median seat (79.7%).

    83.7 − 79.7 = +4.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 5.6 pp in 2007 to 4.7 pp.

    4.7 − 5.6 = −0.9 pp

  5. SAD held the seat it won in 2007.
