Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed JC polled 9,374 votes, 1.4× the 6,716-vote margin.

    9,374 ÷ 6,716 = 1.4

  2. The top two polled 65.8% of votes; the other 4 candidates 34.2% between them.

    (20,299 + 13,583) ÷ 51,485 = 65.8% · 17,603 ÷ 51,485 = 34.2%

  3. Turnout of 61.0% was 21.8 pp above the state's median seat (39.2%).

    61.0 − 39.2 = +21.8

  4. The margin narrowed from 15.5 pp in 1967 to 13.0 pp.

    13.0 − 15.5 = −2.5 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: PRAGAT in 1967, INC in 1971.

    1967 PRAGAT · 1971 INC
