Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed UC polled 2,752 votes, 1.9× the 1,445-vote margin.

    2,752 ÷ 1,445 = 1.9

  2. The top two polled 42.2% of votes; the other 9 candidates 57.8% between them.

    (5,216 + 3,771) ÷ 21,280 = 42.2% · 12,293 ÷ 21,280 = 57.8%

  3. Turnout of 29.3% was 9.9 pp below the state's median seat (39.2%).

    29.3 − 39.2 = −9.9

  4. The margin narrowed from 19.3 pp in 1967 to 6.8 pp.

    6.8 − 19.3 = −12.5 pp

  5. SWA held the seat it won in 1967.
