[02]Computed insights

Arithmetic · working shown
  1. Third-placed IND polled 3,330 votes, 1.3× the 2,572-vote margin.

    3,330 ÷ 2,572 = 1.3
  2. The top two polled 61.5% of votes; the other 8 candidates 38.5% between them.

    (7,972 + 5,400) ÷ 21,753 = 61.5% · 8,381 ÷ 21,753 = 38.5%
  3. Turnout of 27.6% was 20.9 pp below the state's median seat (48.5%).

    27.6 − 48.5 = −20.9
  4. The margin widened from 6.8 pp in 1971 to 11.8 pp.

    11.8 − 6.8 = +5.0 pp
  5. The seat changed hands: SWA in 1971, CPI in 1974.

    1971 SWA · 1974 CPI
