Can we draw the following hypothesis from the context? 

Context:

Olympic officials familiar with Salt Lake City's bid for the 2002 Winter Games have described in recent weeks a process by which Salt Lake City Olympic officials targeted the votes of 17 African IOC members after losing by four votes to Nagano, Japan, for the right to play host to the 1998 Winter Olympics.

Hypothesis: Salt Lake City lost by five votes to Nagano, Japan.
