Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 87.9% of votes; the other 1 candidate 8.1% between them.

    (23,407 + 15,253) ÷ 44,005 = 87.9% · 3,568 ÷ 44,005 = 8.1%

  2. Turnout of 50.6% was 4.8 pp above the state's median seat (45.8%).

    50.6 − 45.8 = +4.8

  3. The margin narrowed from 35.5 pp in 1977 to 18.5 pp.

    18.5 − 35.5 = −17.0 pp
