Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 1,270 votes, 1.9× the 670-vote margin.

    1,270 ÷ 670 = 1.9

  2. The top two polled 47.3% of votes; the other 5 candidates 50.8% between them.

    (2,222 + 1,552) ÷ 7,986 = 47.3% · 4,059 ÷ 7,986 = 50.8%

  3. Turnout of 89.9% was 11.3 pp above the state's median seat (78.6%).

    89.9 − 78.6 = +11.3

  4. The margin widened from 0.2 pp in 1977 to 8.4 pp.

    8.4 − 0.2 = +8.2 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1977, IND in 1982.
