Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 96.7% of votes; the other 1 candidate 1.3% between them.

    (48,615 + 31,840) ÷ 83,208 = 96.7% · 1,073 ÷ 83,208 = 1.3%

  2. Turnout of 79.9% was 1.2 pp above the state's median seat (78.7%).

    79.9 − 78.7 = +1.2

  3. The margin narrowed from 27.0 pp in 1977 to 20.2 pp.

    20.2 − 27.0 = −6.8 pp

  4. RSP held the seat it won in 1977.
