Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SUCI(C) polled 3,364 votes, 1.6× the 2,055-vote margin.

    3,364 ÷ 2,055 = 1.6

  2. The top two polled 88.9% of votes; the other 2 candidates 9.0% between them.

    (20,519 + 18,464) ÷ 43,829 = 88.9% · 3,938 ÷ 43,829 = 9.0%

  3. Turnout of 45.5% was 0.3 pp below the state's median seat (45.8%).

    45.5 − 45.8 = −0.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 16.1 pp in 1977 to 4.7 pp.

    4.7 − 16.1 = −11.4 pp

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