Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 3,007 votes, 1.9× the 1,570-vote margin.

    3,007 ÷ 1,570 = 1.9

  2. The top two polled 83.7% of votes; the other 1 candidate 15.3% between them.

    (8,992 + 7,422) ÷ 19,610 = 83.7% · 3,007 ÷ 19,610 = 15.3%

  3. Turnout of 62.3% was 9.8 pp below the state's median seat (72.1%).

    62.3 − 72.1 = −9.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 34.4 pp in 1977 to 8.0 pp.

    8.0 − 34.4 = −26.4 pp

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