[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. The top two polled 94.2% of votes; the other 3 candidates 4.2% between them.

    (37,627 + 30,519) ÷ 72,330 = 94.2% · 3,024 ÷ 72,330 = 4.2%
  2. Turnout of 67.2% was 21.4 pp above the state's median seat (45.8%).

    67.2 − 45.8 = +21.4
  3. The margin narrowed from 40.9 pp in 1977 to 9.8 pp.

    9.8 − 40.9 = −31.1 pp
  4. The seat changed hands: JNP in 1977, INC in 1980.
