The ultimate margin of victory was 5&4, which just about illustrated the imperious nature of Day's Sunday display.
In even the most tepid political campaign, a presidential candidate's numbers often swing by more than the ultimate margin of victory.
The beleaguered bullpen allowed only one run the rest of the way, but it was a sixth-inning pinch-hit homer by D'Ángelo Jiménez off Scott Schoeneweis that represented the ultimate margin of victory.
Across the state, Clinton's ultimate margin of victory – 49.9%to49.6%6% – was just wide enough that the coin tosses in her favor were not the only decisive factor.
Thus, while Mitt Romney appears headed for a Florida victory on Tuesday, his ultimate margin may still surprise.
They found Obama's ultimate margin "not surprising" since it roughly matched what statistical models based mostly on "fundamental factors" (such as perceptions of the economy and the Bush administration) had predicted (for more details, see comments by Larry Bartels in the Brookings post-election roundtable or the concise summary, with ample links, by John Sides).
Leaf: alternate, sessile; basal blades pinnately lobed, lobes narrow, linear, spreading, ultimate margins entire, smooth; distal cauline reduced to linear bracts.
Leaf: basal and proximal cauline petioled, 1--3 cm, 1--2 cm wide, widely ovate or fiddle-shaped and pinnately lobed, lateral lobes 1--3 pairs, tapered to wedge-shaped at base, ultimate margins +- entire or crenate to coarsely dentate; distal cauline sessile, bract-like, entire.
Stem: erect, branched; nodal spines present or 0. Leaf: generally alternate (proximal 2--6 occasionally opposite), petioled or distal sessile, linear to nearly round, often +- palmately or pinnately lobed, ultimate margins entire or +- toothed, faces minutely coarse-hairy or +- strigose, generally gland-dotted.
The purpose of the present work, which has been divided in three parts, was then to assess the ultimate ALFRED safety margins against failure of the key core components and systems (Part III).
That helps obtaining more safety margin (the ultimate strength minus the applied compression stress) to weight ratio.
