Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 1,715 votes, 3.1× the 555-vote margin.

    1,715 ÷ 555 = 3.1

  2. The top two polled 50.1% of votes; the other 3 candidates 48.7% between them.

    (2,280 + 1,725) ÷ 7,993 = 50.1% · 3,894 ÷ 7,993 = 48.7%

  3. Turnout of 76.2% was 2.4 pp below the state's median seat (78.6%).

    76.2 − 78.6 = −2.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 10.9 pp in 1977 to 6.9 pp.

    6.9 − 10.9 = −4.0 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1977, NNDP in 1982.
