Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 1,655 votes, 1.3× the 1,240-vote margin.

    1,655 ÷ 1,240 = 1.3

  2. The top two polled 57.9% of votes; the other 7 candidates 42.1% between them.

    (4,058 + 2,818) ÷ 11,883 = 57.9% · 5,007 ÷ 11,883 = 42.1%

  3. Turnout of 43.3% was 5.5 pp below the state's median seat (48.8%).

    43.3 − 48.8 = −5.5

  4. The margin narrowed from 30.8 pp in 1967 to 10.4 pp.

    10.4 − 30.8 = −20.4 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 1967.
