Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 55.3% of votes; the other 5 candidates 44.7% between them.

    (7,285 + 3,260) ÷ 19,074 = 55.3% · 8,529 ÷ 19,074 = 44.7%

  2. Turnout of 30.1% was 9.1 pp below the state's median seat (39.2%).

    30.1 − 39.2 = −9.1

  3. The margin widened from 9.9 pp in 1967 to 21.1 pp.

    21.1 − 9.9 = +11.2 pp

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

    1967 SWA · 1971 UC
