Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SWA polled 1,945 votes, 2.0× the 962-vote margin.

    1,945 ÷ 962 = 2.0

  2. The top two polled 75.4% of votes; the other 3 candidates 24.6% between them.

    (5,149 + 4,187) ÷ 12,378 = 75.4% · 3,042 ÷ 12,378 = 24.6%

  3. Turnout of 20.4% was 18.8 pp below the state's median seat (39.2%).

    20.4 − 39.2 = −18.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 14.7 pp in 1967 to 7.8 pp.

    7.8 − 14.7 = −6.9 pp

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