Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SWA polled 6,173 votes, 3.6× the 1,695-vote margin.

    6,173 ÷ 1,695 = 3.6

  2. The top two polled 62.5% of votes; the other 3 candidates 37.5% between them.

    (9,169 + 7,474) ÷ 26,609 = 62.5% · 9,966 ÷ 26,609 = 37.5%

  3. Turnout of 33.9% was 7.0 pp below the state's median seat (40.9%).

    33.9 − 40.9 = −7.0

  4. The margin narrowed from 27.3 pp in 1961 to 6.4 pp.

    6.4 − 27.3 = −20.9 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 1961.
