Math game...

Here's another problem someone might want to try...

There are two candidates running for the same office. The polls show that 60% of voters support candidate A and 40% of voters support candidate B. (For the purpose of this exercise, there are no undecided voters.) Since they are so sure of winning by a landslide, many of candidate A's supporters stay at home and don't bother voting, which changes the results considerably compared to what was expected. Candidate B get's 20% more votes than expected in the election. Who won the elections and by how much?

I'll be going out of town tomorrow and won't be back until Sunday evening, so you all have time to figure this out.
