[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed IND polled 6,069 votes, 506× the 12-vote margin.

    6,069 ÷ 12 = 505.8

  2. The top two polled 61.1% of votes; the other 3 candidates 35.0% between them.

    (7,822 + 7,810) ÷ 25,605 = 61.1% · 8,966 ÷ 25,605 = 35.0%

  3. Turnout of 30.6% was 11.2 pp below the state's median seat (41.8%).

    30.6 − 41.8 = −11.2

  4. The margin narrowed from 42.4 pp in 1974 to 0.0 pp.

    0.0 − 42.4 = −42.4 pp
