Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 98.2% of votes; the other 1 candidate 1.8% between them.

    (34,073 + 23,073) ÷ 58,187 = 98.2% · 1,041 ÷ 58,187 = 1.8%

  2. Turnout of 69.5% was 5.9 pp above the state's median seat (63.6%).

    69.5 − 63.6 = +5.9

  3. The margin widened from 17.1 pp in 1962 to 18.9 pp.

    18.9 − 17.1 = +1.8 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INC in 1962, AIFB in 1967.
