Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 76.1% of votes; the other 3 candidates 20.2% between them.

    (10,511 + 7,734) ÷ 23,984 = 76.1% · 4,847 ÷ 23,984 = 20.2%

  2. Turnout of 27.5% was 18.3 pp below the state's median seat (45.8%).

    27.5 − 45.8 = −18.3

  3. The margin narrowed from 35.2 pp in 1977 to 11.6 pp.

    11.6 − 35.2 = −23.6 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: JNP in 1977, INC in 1980.
