Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 77.1% of votes; the other 2 candidates 21.3% between them.

    (46,607 + 18,204) ÷ 84,063 = 77.1% · 17,929 ÷ 84,063 = 21.3%

  2. Turnout of 81.5% was 2.8 pp above the state's median seat (78.7%).

    81.5 − 78.7 = +2.8

  3. The margin widened from 20.3 pp in 1977 to 33.8 pp.

    33.8 − 20.3 = +13.5 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: JNP in 1977, IND in 1982.
