Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 80.6% of votes; the other 4 candidates 19.4% between them.

    (13,104 + 10,209) ÷ 28,936 = 80.6% · 5,623 ÷ 28,936 = 19.4%

  2. Turnout of 47.6% was 11.6 pp below the state's median seat (59.2%).

    47.6 − 59.2 = −11.6

  3. The margin widened from 7.5 pp in 1962 to 10.0 pp.

    10.0 − 7.5 = +2.5 pp

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