Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 94.6% of votes; the other 2 candidates 5.4% between them.

    (11,136 + 1,937) ÷ 13,820 = 94.6% · 747 ÷ 13,820 = 5.4%

  2. Turnout of 56.1% was 7.3 pp above the state's median seat (48.8%).

    56.1 − 48.8 = +7.3

  3. The margin widened from 48.3 pp in 1967 to 66.6 pp.

    66.6 − 48.3 = +18.3 pp
