Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC(U) polled 3,044 votes, 6.4× the 475-vote margin.

    3,044 ÷ 475 = 6.4

  2. The top two polled 73.8% of votes; the other 3 candidates 22.5% between them.

    (10,381 + 9,906) ÷ 27,486 = 73.8% · 6,188 ÷ 27,486 = 22.5%

  3. Turnout of 35.9% was 9.9 pp below the state's median seat (45.8%).

    35.9 − 45.8 = −9.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 24.2 pp in 1977 to 1.7 pp.

    1.7 − 24.2 = −22.5 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: JNP in 1977, JPSCC in 1980.
