Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 77.5% of votes; the other 4 candidates 20.5% between them.

    (9,873 + 6,242) ÷ 20,785 = 77.5% · 4,266 ÷ 20,785 = 20.5%

  2. Turnout of 25.1% was 16.7 pp below the state's median seat (41.8%).

    25.1 − 41.8 = −16.7

  3. The margin widened from 11.8 pp in 1974 to 17.5 pp.

    17.5 − 11.8 = +5.7 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: CPI in 1974, JNP in 1977.
