Reader’s notes
p. 230. Stub heading cell is blank in both heading levels; the panel headings "Total", "By employer", "By union" and "By both parties^2" each span the two columns "Number" and "Percent by type". The footnote 1 marker is attached to the caption (Fiscal Year 1987^1), which is not transcribed; footnote 2 marker is attached to the "By both parties" heading. The section line is printed "By type of election." with a terminal period rather than the colon used in "By type of case:"; transcribed as printed. Dash rules ("------") in percent cells for Consent/Expedited/Board-directed elections and all four Expedited cells are rendered as "". "RD cases" percent-by-type for "By union" reads 66.6 (31.4 + 66.6 + 2.0 = 100.0 as printed, though 34/51 would round to 66.7); transcribed as printed. All other rows' components sum to their printed totals.
