Arithmetic · working shown

Third-placed NCN polled 1,667 votes, 1.2× the 1,379-vote margin.
1,667 ÷ 1,379 = 1.2
The top two polled 74.3% of votes; the other 1 candidate 24.3% between them.
(3,233 + 1,854) ÷ 6,847 = 74.3% · 1,667 ÷ 6,847 = 24.3%
Turnout of 91.0% was 4.3 pp above the state's median seat (86.7%).
91.0 − 86.7 = +4.3
The margin widened from 16.0 pp in 1974 to 20.1 pp.
