Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed SWA polled 4,408 votes, 1.6× the 2,767-vote margin.

    4,408 ÷ 2,767 = 1.6

  2. The top two polled 63.9% of votes; the other 6 candidates 36.1% between them.

    (8,709 + 5,942) ÷ 22,919 = 63.9% · 8,268 ÷ 22,919 = 36.1%

  3. Turnout of 36.5% was 2.7 pp below the state's median seat (39.2%).

    36.5 − 39.2 = −2.7

  4. The margin narrowed from 16.8 pp in 1967 to 12.1 pp.

    12.1 − 16.8 = −4.7 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: SWA in 1967, JP in 1971.

    1967 SWA · 1971 JP
