Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.7% of votes; the other 3 candidates 3.7% between them.

    (24,370 + 12,428) ÷ 39,688 = 92.7% · 1,481 ÷ 39,688 = 3.7%

  2. Turnout of 45.4% was 22.4 pp below the state's median seat (67.8%).

    45.4 − 67.8 = −22.4

  3. The margin widened from 5.2 pp in 1980 to 30.1 pp.

    30.1 − 5.2 = +24.9 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 1980, SAD in 1985.
