Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 5,455 votes, 1.5× the 3,662-vote margin.

    5,455 ÷ 3,662 = 1.5

  2. The top two polled 75.0% of votes; the other 2 candidates 21.6% between them.

    (14,177 + 10,515) ÷ 32,909 = 75.0% · 7,098 ÷ 32,909 = 21.6%

  3. Turnout of 37.4% was 4.4 pp below the state's median seat (41.8%).

    37.4 − 41.8 = −4.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 20.6 pp in 1974 to 11.1 pp.

    11.1 − 20.6 = −9.5 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: SWA in 1974, JNP in 1977.

    1974 SWA · 1977 JNP
