Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 596 votes, 1.1× the 519-vote margin.

    596 ÷ 519 = 1.1

  2. The top two polled 95.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 3.2% between them.

    (34,691 + 34,172) ÷ 71,813 = 95.9% · 2,282 ÷ 71,813 = 3.2%

  3. Turnout of 64.6% was 8.7 pp above the state's median seat (55.9%).

    64.6 − 55.9 = +8.7

  4. The margin narrowed from 7.1 pp in 1980 to 0.7 pp.

    0.7 − 7.1 = −6.4 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 1980.
