Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 72.4% of votes; the other 4 candidates 27.6% between them.

    (51,220 + 11,842) ÷ 87,077 = 72.4% · 24,015 ÷ 87,077 = 27.6%

  2. Turnout of 58.9% was 1.1 pp below the state's median seat (60.0%).

    58.9 − 60.0 = −1.1

  3. The margin widened from 10.1 pp in 1967 to 45.2 pp.

    45.2 − 10.1 = +35.1 pp
