Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 80.0% of votes; the other 3 candidates 17.6% between them.

    (23,588 + 16,185) ÷ 49,726 = 80.0% · 8,745 ÷ 49,726 = 17.6%

  2. Turnout of 50.6% was 1.0 pp above the state's median seat (49.6%).

    50.6 − 49.6 = +1.0

  3. The margin narrowed from 16.3 pp in 1975 to 14.9 pp.

    14.9 − 16.3 = −1.4 pp

  4. The seat changed hands: INCO in 1975, INC in 1980.
