Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 92.9% of votes; the other 3 candidates 7.1% between them.

    (27,416 + 25,160) ÷ 56,623 = 92.9% · 4,047 ÷ 56,623 = 7.1%

  2. Turnout of 71.8% was 23.3 pp above the state's median seat (48.5%).

    71.8 − 48.5 = +23.3

  3. The margin narrowed from 30.3 pp in 1971 to 4.0 pp.

    4.0 − 30.3 = −26.3 pp
