Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 75.4% of votes; the other 13 candidates 22.8% between them.

    (24,890 + 16,813) ÷ 55,289 = 75.4% · 12,593 ÷ 55,289 = 22.8%

  2. Turnout of 67.2% was 3.2 pp below the state's median seat (70.4%).

    67.2 − 70.4 = −3.2

  3. The margin narrowed from 31.1 pp in 1977 to 14.6 pp.

    14.6 − 31.1 = −16.5 pp

  4. Devi Dass also won in 1977.
