Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 93.1% of votes; the other 1 candidate 4.8% between them.

    (26,658 + 20,572) ÷ 50,743 = 93.1% · 2,426 ÷ 50,743 = 4.8%

  2. Turnout of 56.2% was 14.4 pp above the state's median seat (41.8%).

    56.2 − 41.8 = +14.4

  3. The margin narrowed from 18.3 pp in 1974 to 12.0 pp.

    12.0 − 18.3 = −6.3 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: IND in 1974, INC in 1977.
