Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 66.4% of votes; the other 4 candidates 33.6% between them.

    (6,137 + 3,667) ÷ 14,757 = 66.4% · 4,953 ÷ 14,757 = 33.6%

  2. Turnout of 20.6% was 18.6 pp below the state's median seat (39.2%).

    20.6 − 39.2 = −18.6

  3. The margin narrowed from 26.6 pp in 1967 to 16.7 pp.

    16.7 − 26.6 = −9.9 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: SWA in 1967, INC in 1971.

    1967 SWA · 1971 INC
