Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.3% of votes; the other 3 candidates 4.5% between them.

    (45,809 + 28,244) ÷ 79,396 = 93.3% · 3,535 ÷ 79,396 = 4.5%

  2. Turnout of 81.2% was 2.5 pp above the state's median seat (78.7%).

    81.2 − 78.7 = +2.5

  3. The margin narrowed from 42.5 pp in 1977 to 22.1 pp.

    22.1 − 42.5 = −20.4 pp

  4. AIFB held the seat it won in 1977.
