Geographic Distribution of Decertification Elections Held in Cases Closed, Fiscal Year 1983

p. 222. 17 columns. The crop is the first page of the table: it ends with a rule just below the "West North Central" division total and the next division's rows are cut off, so the table continues on the following page. The stub heading carries footnote marker 1 ("Division and State ^1"), but no footnote text is printed on this crop (it presumably appears at the end of the table on a later page), so `footnotes` is empty. Doubtful cell: "Middle Atlantic", column "Total valid votes cast" is printed as "3 121" — the digit-grouping comma is missing or did not take ink, with a plain space in its place. I transcribed it as "3,121"; the column sums of the three Middle Atlantic states (1,662 + 464 + 995) confirm 3,121. Division-total rows (New England, Middle Atlantic, East North Central, West North Central) are indented in the original; indentation is not represented in the grid. All division totals were checked against their member states' values in every column and agree, so no misprints are suspected elsewhere. Faint stray marks appear in the right margin beside the Pennsylvania row; they are page artifacts outside the table body, not data or footnote markers.

p. 223. The crop is a middle portion of a multi-page table: it carries the column headings but no caption, and it is cut off at the bottom immediately below the "West South Central" subtotal (a rule and the top of the next geographic division's block are just visible), so further rows continue beyond the crop. The stub heading carries a raised "1" ("Division and State 1"), but the text of footnote 1 is not printed anywhere on this crop, so `footnotes` is empty. Typesetting detail: Arkansas, "Total valid votes cast" is printed as "1 541" (space where the comma should be, comma faint or dropped in the scan); transcribed as "1,541". Several other grouped numbers show the usual wide space after the comma and were normalized the same way. Verification: all three subtotal rows (South Atlantic, East South Central, West South Central) were checked against the sum of their component state rows in every one of the 16 numeric columns, and all 48 column sums agree exactly with the printed subtotals. No misprints detected. Nothing was computed or corrected; a few scan-level oddities worth flagging for a reader even though they are internally consistent: Alabama shows 0 elections won and 0 eligible employees in units choosing representation, yet 464 valid votes cast for unions (all AFL-CIO) — printed as such and consistent with the East South Central subtotal. The faint italic-looking "1" vs "l" shapes in the scan (e.g. "Flonda", "Mississippi") are OCR-style artifacts of the image only; row labels were transcribed with correct spelling as printed.

p. 224. The crop is a continuation page: no column headings are printed on it, so header_rows is empty. The grid has 17 columns (stub + 16 numeric columns), counted from the vertical rules; the stub column is wide and empty to the right of each label. The table's earlier state rows and the stub heading carrying footnote marker 1 are on preceding pages and are not in this crop. No footnote markers appear on any value or label in this image. "Mountain", "Pacific" and "Outlying Areas" are indented subtotal lines; "Total, all States and areas" is the grand total. Column alignment was verified arithmetically and is internally consistent everywhere: in every row col1 = col2 + col7, col2 = col3+col4+col5+col6, col9 = col10 + col15, and col10 = col11+col12+col13+col14; the Mountain, Pacific, Outlying Areas and grand-total lines also equal the sums of their member rows in all 16 columns. Scan artifacts render the letter "i" without its dot in several labels (Wyoming, Arizona, Washington, California, Hawaii, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Outlying, Mountain, Pacific); these are transcribed with normal spelling. Sentence-ending and abbreviation periods in the footnote ("U S Department") are not legible in the scan and are transcribed as printed. A small stray ink speck sits in the Washington row near column 4 and is not a digit.
