Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total votes = X
%of valid votes=52%
%of votes to defeated candidate=(100-52)=48%
Difference between votes = 354 votes
(52/100*x)-(48/100*x)=354
(52-48)x/100 =354
4x/100=354
4x=354*100
X=354*100/4=8850
Total votes = valid votes+invalid votes
Total votes = 8850+68
" " = 8918votes
