Arithmetic · working shown

  1. The top two polled 91.3% of votes; the other 1 candidate 8.7% between them.

    (28,633 + 9,591) ÷ 41,870 = 91.3% · 3,646 ÷ 41,870 = 8.7%

  2. Turnout of 47.5% was 8.3 pp above the state's median seat (39.2%).

    47.5 − 39.2 = +8.3

  3. The margin widened from 22.2 pp in 1967 to 45.5 pp.

    45.5 − 22.2 = +23.3 pp
