Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 77.9% of votes; the other 4 candidates 22.1% between them.

    (47,730 + 14,718) ÷ 80,166 = 77.9% · 17,718 ÷ 80,166 = 22.1%

  2. Turnout of 53.8% was 6.2 pp below the state's median seat (60.0%).

    53.8 − 60.0 = −6.2

  3. The margin widened from 12.0 pp in 1967 to 41.2 pp.

    41.2 − 12.0 = +29.2 pp
