Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 84.1% of votes; the other 9 candidates 15.3% between them.

    (87,977 + 59,141) ÷ 1,74,984 = 84.1% · 26,821 ÷ 1,74,984 = 15.3%

  2. Turnout of 91.7% was 1.7 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    91.7 − 93.4 = −1.7

  3. The margin widened from 14.6 pp in 2021 to 16.5 pp.

    16.5 − 14.6 = +1.9 pp
