Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JNP(JP) polled 2,253 votes, 2.1× the 1,082-vote margin.

    2,253 ÷ 1,082 = 2.1

  2. The top two polled 82.2% of votes; the other 2 candidates 13.3% between them.

    (13,791 + 12,709) ÷ 32,225 = 82.2% · 4,284 ÷ 32,225 = 13.3%

  3. Turnout of 36.9% was 8.9 pp below the state's median seat (45.8%).

    36.9 − 45.8 = −8.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 22.5 pp in 1977 to 3.4 pp.

    3.4 − 22.5 = −19.1 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: IND in 1977, INC in 1980.
