Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed INC polled 8,346 votes, 111× the 75-vote margin.

    8,346 ÷ 75 = 111.3

  2. The top two polled 59.0% of votes; the other 3 candidates 41.0% between them.

    (9,993 + 9,918) ÷ 33,746 = 59.0% · 13,835 ÷ 33,746 = 41.0%

  3. Turnout of 45.2% was 3.3 pp below the state's median seat (48.5%).

    45.2 − 48.5 = −3.3

  4. The margin narrowed from 1.4 pp in 1971 to 0.2 pp.

    0.2 − 1.4 = −1.2 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: UC in 1971, IND in 1974.
