  1. 1 The total for consent-type elections in certification excludes elections held in UD cases which are included in the totals in Table 11.

72 of 98 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out. 4 cells break a sum: 'All types', column 4: prints 88, rows 'Rerun required' to 'Expedited—Sec. 8(b)(' add to 263; 'All types', column 8: prints 78, rows 'Rerun required' to 'Expedited—Sec. 8(b)(' add to 234; 'All types', column 12: prints 2, rows 'Rerun required' to 'Expedited—Sec. 8(b)(' add to 5; 'All types', column 16: prints 8, rows 'Rerun required' to 'Expedited—Sec. 8(b)(' add to 24.

Reader’s notes

p. 229. The table is printed sideways on the page (text rotated 90 degrees); the crop shows it complete, with 17 columns = stub + four panels (All R, RC, RM, RD elections) of 4 columns each. Within each panel the spanner \"Elections conducted\" covers only \"Total elections\", \"Withdrawn or dismissed before certification\" and \"Resulting in a rerun or runoff\"; \"Resulting in certification\" is a tall heading standing beside it, spanning the second and third heading levels. The footnote marker 1 is printed on the \"Resulting in certification\" heading of the All R elections panel only.\n\nIn the indented \"Rerun required\" / \"Runoff required\" sub-rows, every column except \"Resulting in a rerun or runoff\" carries a dash rule, transcribed as empty cells.\n\nThe footnote line at the foot of the page is set in very small type and my reading of its middle phrase (\"for consent-type elections in certification\") is uncertain; the sense is that the certification total excludes UD-case elections that are counted in Table 11. The rest of the footnote reads clearly.\n\nAll internal arithmetic is consistent: each All R value equals RC + RM + RD; each panel's \"All types\" equals the sum of the five election-type rows; and in every panel Total elections = Withdrawn + Resulting in a rerun or runoff + Resulting in certification. No misprints detected. One stray ink speck sits beside the RD \"Resulting in a rerun or runoff\" value for the Board-directed \"Rerun required\" line; the digit there is 0.
