[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 80.1% of votes; the other 5 candidates 16.6% between them.

    (22,898 + 11,312) ÷ 42,710 = 80.1% · 7,109 ÷ 42,710 = 16.6%
  2. Turnout of 42.3% was 0.5 pp above the state's median seat (41.8%).

    42.3 − 41.8 = +0.5
  3. The margin widened from 5.1 pp in 1974 to 27.1 pp.

    27.1 − 5.1 = +22.0 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: UC in 1974, JNP in 1977.
