Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed LKD polled 8,754 votes, 1.9× the 4,688-vote margin.

    8,754 ÷ 4,688 = 1.9

  2. The top two polled 85.3% of votes; the other 7 candidates 13.7% between them.

    (36,442 + 31,754) ÷ 79,988 = 85.3% · 10,921 ÷ 79,988 = 13.7%

  3. Turnout of 62.0% was 6.1 pp above the state's median seat (55.9%).

    62.0 − 55.9 = +6.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 19.5 pp in 1980 to 5.9 pp.

    5.9 − 19.5 = −13.6 pp

  5. INC held the seat it won in 1980.
