81 of 81 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.
p. 303. Seven columns: stub (Type of case), Total, then five Type-of-election columns. "Type of case" and "Total" are tall single headings spanning both heading levels; "Type of election" spans the last five columns. The three cells in the Expedited-elections-under-8(b)(7)(C) column for the UD cases block (Elections, Eligible voters, Valid votes) each hold only a dash rule, so they are transcribed as "". Section-label punctuation is uncertain in this scan: a faint mark that is most likely a colon follows "All types, total" and "RM cases" and is clearly a colon after "UD cases"; no mark is visible after "RC cases" or "RD cases". The marks are transcribed as seen, but the inconsistency is an artifact of print/scan quality rather than meaningful. Arithmetic check (not used to alter any cell): every block's five election-type figures sum to its printed Total, and the four case-type blocks sum to the All types, total block, in all three measures. No misprints detected.
