Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI polled 10,898 votes, 5.3× the 2,067-vote margin.

    10,898 ÷ 2,067 = 5.3

  2. The top two polled 70.9% of votes; the other 2 candidates 27.0% between them.

    (17,210 + 15,143) ÷ 45,650 = 70.9% · 12,344 ÷ 45,650 = 27.0%

  3. Turnout of 45.7% was 3.9 pp above the state's median seat (41.8%).

    45.7 − 41.8 = +3.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 24.2 pp in 1974 to 4.5 pp.

    4.5 − 24.2 = −19.7 pp

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