Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed UC polled 2,506 votes, 3.1× the 817-vote margin.

    2,506 ÷ 817 = 3.1

  2. The top two polled 66.3% of votes; the other 5 candidates 33.7% between them.

    (7,684 + 6,867) ÷ 21,944 = 66.3% · 7,393 ÷ 21,944 = 33.7%

  3. Turnout of 32.6% was 6.6 pp below the state's median seat (39.2%).

    32.6 − 39.2 = −6.6

  4. The margin widened from 3.3 pp in 1967 to 3.7 pp.

    3.7 − 3.3 = +0.4 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: INC in 1967, SWA in 1971.

    1967 INC · 1971 SWA
