Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 70.9% of votes; the other 4 candidates 29.1% between them.

    (10,314 + 4,315) ÷ 20,623 = 70.9% · 5,994 ÷ 20,623 = 29.1%

  2. Turnout of 28.1% was 11.1 pp below the state's median seat (39.2%).

    28.1 − 39.2 = −11.1

  3. The margin widened from 20.5 pp in 1967 to 29.1 pp.

    29.1 − 20.5 = +8.6 pp
