  1. 1 See Glossary for definitions of terms.
  2. 2 See table 11E for rerun elections held after objections were sustained. In 38 elections in which objections were sustained, the cases were subsequently withdrawn. Therefore, in these cases no rerun elections were conducted.

42 of 42 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.

Reader’s notes

p. 242. Eight columns: stub plus 7 data columns; the stub heading is blank on both heading levels, and "Objections filed", "Objections withdrawn" and "Objections ruled upon" are tall single headings spanning both levels. Decimal points: the scan has dropped or faded the period in most percent cells, which print as e.g. "78 5", "78 0", "93. 1", "81 0", "84 8", "100 0", "80 2", "90 9", "22 0", "6 9", "19 0", "22 8", "19 8", "9 1". They are plainly decimal percentages (only "21.5", "93.1", "15.2", "77.2" show the point clearly), so I transcribed every one with a decimal point. Each is confirmed arithmetically against its own Number / "Objections ruled upon" pair (e.g. 804/1,024 = 78.5; 27/29 = 93.1; 10/11 = 90.9), so the placement is not in doubt, only the ink. "Expedited elections", Sustained Percent column: printed as a dashed leader rule, transcribed as "". "Expedited elections", Objections withdrawn: printed "0" followed by a stray speck that reads like a period; taken as 0. The caption carries footnote marker 1 and the "Sustained" heading carries marker 2; the caption itself is omitted per instructions. Terminal periods in both footnotes are faint or lost in the scan and were restored. All rows cross-foot correctly: the three case types and the five election types each sum to the "All representation elections" line in every count column (1,145+35+50 = 1,230; 59+705+2+247+11 = 1,024; 50+544+2+198+10 = 804; etc.). No misprints detected.
