Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed CPI polled 11,659 votes, 29× the 409-vote margin.

    11,659 ÷ 409 = 28.5

  2. The top two polled 73.9% of votes; the other 1 candidate 26.1% between them.

    (16,742 + 16,333) ÷ 44,734 = 73.9% · 11,659 ÷ 44,734 = 26.1%

  3. Turnout of 67.6% was 3.5 pp below the state's median seat (71.1%).

    67.6 − 71.1 = −3.5

  4. The margin narrowed from 6.3 pp in 1967 to 0.9 pp.

    0.9 − 6.3 = −5.4 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: CPI in 1967, SAD in 1969.
