Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 97.0% of votes; the other 7 candidates 1.8% between them.

    (36,055 + 186) ÷ 37,377 = 97.0% · 666 ÷ 37,377 = 1.8%

  2. Turnout of 5.1% was 34.4 pp below the state's median seat (39.5%).

    5.1 − 39.5 = −34.4

  3. The margin widened from 19.1 pp in 1984 to 96.0 pp.

    96.0 − 19.1 = +76.9 pp

  4. JKNC held the seat it won in 1984.
