Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed IND polled 2,572 votes, 19× the 133-vote margin.

    2,572 ÷ 133 = 19.3
  2. The top two polled 63.1% of votes; the other 2 candidates 36.0% between them.

    (3,215 + 3,082) ÷ 9,986 = 63.1% · 3,597 ÷ 9,986 = 36.0%
  3. Turnout of 85.5% was 6.9 pp above the state's median seat (78.6%).

    85.5 − 78.6 = +6.9
  4. The margin narrowed from 4.2 pp in 1977 to 1.3 pp.

    1.3 − 4.2 = −2.9 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: IND in 1977, NNDP in 1982.
