Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI polled 8,159 votes, 1.8× the 4,591-vote margin.

    8,159 ÷ 4,591 = 1.8

  2. The top two polled 77.4% of votes; the other 2 candidates 22.6% between them.

    (19,636 + 15,045) ÷ 44,801 = 77.4% · 10,120 ÷ 44,801 = 22.6%

  3. Turnout of 58.3% was 17.4 pp above the state's median seat (40.9%).

    58.3 − 40.9 = +17.4

  4. The margin narrowed from 11.1 pp in 1961 to 10.3 pp.

    10.3 − 11.1 = −0.8 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1961, PRAGAT in 1967.

    1961 INC · 1967 PRAGAT
