[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed JC polled 5,067 votes, 1.5× the 3,401-vote margin.

    5,067 ÷ 3,401 = 1.5
  2. The top two polled 60.9% of votes; the other 3 candidates 39.1% between them.

    (9,995 + 6,594) ÷ 27,221 = 60.9% · 10,632 ÷ 27,221 = 39.1%
  3. Turnout of 41.6% was 0.7 pp above the state's median seat (40.9%).

    41.6 − 40.9 = +0.7
  4. The margin narrowed from 18.4 pp in 1961 to 12.5 pp.

    12.5 − 18.4 = −5.9 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: CPI in 1961, INC in 1967.
