Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 68.4% of votes; the other 7 candidates 31.6% between them.

    (16,706 + 11,398) ÷ 41,101 = 68.4% · 12,997 ÷ 41,101 = 31.6%

  2. Turnout of 49.3% was 8.4 pp above the state's median seat (40.9%).

    49.3 − 40.9 = +8.4

  3. The margin widened from 9.2 pp in 1961 to 12.9 pp.

    12.9 − 9.2 = +3.7 pp
