[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed NNDP polled 1,301 votes, 2.3× the 560-vote margin.

    1,301 ÷ 560 = 2.3

  2. The top two polled 51.1% of votes; the other 3 candidates 47.5% between them.

    (1,981 + 1,421) ÷ 6,661 = 51.1% · 3,165 ÷ 6,661 = 47.5%

  3. Turnout of 86.8% was 8.2 pp above the state's median seat (78.6%).

    86.8 − 78.6 = +8.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 19.5 pp in 1977 to 8.4 pp.

    8.4 − 19.5 = −11.1 pp

  5. IND held the seat it won in 1977.
