Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 1,148 votes, 3.0× the 379-vote margin.

    1,148 ÷ 379 = 3.0

  2. The top two polled 57.1% of votes; the other 3 candidates 40.5% between them.

    (1,652 + 1,273) ÷ 5,127 = 57.1% · 2,076 ÷ 5,127 = 40.5%

  3. Turnout of 81.5% was 5.2 pp below the state's median seat (86.7%).

    81.5 − 86.7 = −5.2

  4. The margin widened from 1.3 pp in 1974 to 7.4 pp.

    7.4 − 1.3 = +6.1 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: NNO in 1974, UDF in 1977.

    1974 NNO · 1977 UDF
