Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed UDF polled 1,497 votes, 19× the 78-vote margin.

    1,497 ÷ 78 = 19.2

  2. The top two polled 53.3% of votes; the other 2 candidates 44.6% between them.

    (1,620 + 1,542) ÷ 5,927 = 53.3% · 2,642 ÷ 5,927 = 44.6%

  3. Turnout of 81.3% was 5.4 pp below the state's median seat (86.7%).

    81.3 − 86.7 = −5.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 5.3 pp in 1974 to 1.3 pp.

    1.3 − 5.3 = −4.0 pp

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