The margin of victory shall be calculated as follows based on the margin type.

• For percentage points: the vote percentage received by Hannah Pingree minus the vote percentage received by the candidate/party/option that finishes immediately behind Hannah Pingree if Hannah Pingree wins, or the candidate/party that finishes first if Hannah Pingree loses.
• For raw votes: the total votes received by Hannah Pingree minus the total votes received by the candidate/party/option that finishes immediately behind Hannah Pingree if Hannah Pingree wins, or the candidate/party/option that finishes first if Hannah Pingree loses.
• For electoral votes: the electoral votes received by Hannah Pingree minus the electoral votes received by the candidate/party/option with the second-most electoral votes if Hannah Pingree wins, or the electoral votes received by Hannah Pingree minus the electoral votes received by the candidate/party/option with the most electoral votes if Hannah Pingree does not.

Each margin range is inclusive of its lower bound and exclusive of its upper bound. No rounding shall be applied to the calculated margin. For example, for consecutive ranges of 5-6% and 6-7%, a margin of 5.99999% resolves within the 5-6% range, while a margin of exactly 6% resolves within the 6-7% range. If Hannah Pingree runs under multiple parties or is listed multiple times, votes attributable to the same underlying natural Hannah Pingree will be summed.

If Hannah Pingree wins the election, the margin will be positive. If Hannah Pingree loses the election, the margin will be negative. If Hannah Pingree ties for first place, the margin shall be 0. For uncontested races where Hannah Pingree is the only candidate, the margin shall be 100 percentage points or the total number of votes cast (for raw votes).
