Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.3% of votes; the other 3 candidates 7.4% between them.

    (32,225 + 25,306) ÷ 63,046 = 91.3% · 4,687 ÷ 63,046 = 7.4%

  2. Turnout of 67.6% was 6.8 pp below the state's median seat (74.4%).

    67.6 − 74.4 = −6.8

  3. The margin widened from 5.9 pp in 1980 to 11.0 pp.

    11.0 − 5.9 = +5.1 pp

  4. INC held the seat it won in 1980.
