  1. 1 See Glossary for definitions of terms.
  2. 2 See table 11E for rerun elections held after objections were sustained. In 17 elections in which objections were sustained, the cases were subsequently withdrawn. Therefore, in these cases no rerun elections were conducted.

44 of 44 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.

Reader’s notes

p. 245. The stub column has no printed heading, so cell 0 is empty in both heading levels. The footnote marker on the "Sustained" spanner is a raised 2, printed in a stylised form that could be mistaken for a different glyph; it matches the second footnote under the table, so it is transcribed as ^2. Faint decimal points: in this 1-bit scan the period is partly dropped in several percent cells, which print as a gap — "83 0" (All representation elections, Overruled Percent), "82 7" (RC cases), "83 3" (RM cases), "17 5" (Consent elections, Sustained Percent) and "84 8" (Regional director-directed elections). Every other cell in those two percent columns shows a clear decimal point in the same position, so these are transcribed as 83.0, 82.7, 83.3, 17.5 and 84.8. Doubtful digit: the Sustained Number cell of the "All representation elections" row is blurred between 5 and 6 (156 vs 166). It is read as 156; both column detail rows sum to 156 (147+6+3 and 7+110+0+37+2) and 917-761=156, which is consistent with that reading. The Sustained Percent cell for "Expedited elections" holds a dash rule only, so it is "". All printed totals and both sets of detail rows are internally consistent; no misprints noted.
