Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed AISF polled 38,437 votes, 1.2× the 30,780-vote margin.

    38,437 ÷ 30,780 = 1.2

  2. The top two polled 77.5% of votes; the other 7 candidates 21.7% between them.

    (97,085 + 66,305) ÷ 2,10,762 = 77.5% · 45,822 ÷ 2,10,762 = 21.7%

  3. Turnout of 90.2% was 3.2 pp below the state's median seat (93.4%).

    90.2 − 93.4 = −3.2

  4. The margin widened from 5.7 pp in 2021 to 14.6 pp.

    14.6 − 5.7 = +8.9 pp

  5. AITC held the seat it won in 2021.
