Reader’s notes

p. 137. Twelve columns: stub, "Total valid votes cast", then five columns under "Valid votes cast in elections won" and five under "Valid votes cast in elections lost". In each of those two groups the first three columns sit under "Votes for unions" (Total, AFL-CIO unions, Other national unions, Other local unions — four columns under "Votes for unions"), followed by the group's "Total votes for no union" column, which spans the second and third heading levels. "Participating unions" and "Total valid votes cast" each span all three heading levels. The caption carries a footnote marker (Fiscal Year 1994^1), but no footnote text appears within this crop; the caption itself is excluded per instructions. The crop ends at the rule below "Total representation elections", so section A is complete here but any footnote text and the table's later sections (the caption's lettered panel A implies at least a section B) fall outside the image. Em-dash rules ("——") are transcribed as empty cells; printed zeros are kept as 0. Note that the dash/zero distinction matters in several rows — e.g. "AFL-CIO v. National" has 0 in the lost "Other national unions" column but a dash rule in lost "Other local unions"; "National v. Local" has a dash in lost "Total" ... actually it has 0 in lost "Total", a dash in lost "AFL-CIO unions", and 0 in both lost "Other national unions" and lost "Other local unions". These were read carefully and are reported as printed. All arithmetic checks pass as transcribed: every data row's components sum to its "Total valid votes cast", each component column sums to the 1-union, 2-union and 3-(or more)-union subtotals, and those three subtotals sum to "Total representation elections" in all eleven numeric columns. No suspected misprints. The scan renders many dotted i's as dotless (e.g. "unıons", "electıons"); these are scanner artifacts and have been transcribed with normal spelling. A stray ink mark sits in the leader dots of the "AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO v. Local" row label; it is not a footnote marker.

p. 138. Continuation page of Table 14 (caption reads "—Continued"); panel A of the table is on the preceding page and is not in this crop. No footnote text is printed on this page, although the caption carries a raised "1" (caption excluded per instructions). Twelve columns: stub, "Total valid votes cast", then five columns under "Valid votes cast in elections won" (Total / AFL-CIO unions / Other national unions / Other local unions, all under "Votes for unions", plus "Total votes for no union") and the same five under "Valid votes cast in elections lost". Cells printed as an em-dash rule (the usual "not applicable" mark for a union type not participating) are rendered as "" as instructed; printed zeros are kept as 0. Where a row shows a dash in one of these columns it is visually a rule rather than a blank, but both map to "". Row label "Local v. Local" (last row of the 2-union block) is printed with a faint/blotted period after "v"; it reads nearly as "Local v Local" in the scan. The period is transcribed on the assumption it matches the other "v." labels in the same block. All internal arithmetic cross-checks pass: each data row's four components (won votes for unions, won votes for no union, lost votes for unions, lost votes for no union) sum to its total valid votes cast; the AFL-CIO/other-national/other-local splits sum to the "Total" votes-for-unions columns; the 1-union, 2-union and 3 (or more)-union subtotals sum to their blocks; and the subtotals sum to "Total RC elections". The RM panel likewise reconciles, and "1-union elections" equals "Total RM elections". No misprints detected.

p. 139. The crop is a continuation page of Table 14; it carries the full column headings plus section D only. The row "D. Elections in RD cases" is printed centered across the data columns rather than in the stub; it is transcribed as a section line with its label in the stub cell and empty data cells. Cells printed as a dash rule (long em-dash) are transcribed as empty strings; printed zeros are kept as 0. "AFL-CIO" is set with an en-dash-like glyph throughout and is transcribed with a plain hyphen. All printed subtotals and the total row cross-foot correctly against the detail rows, so no misprints are suspected. The scan is lightly speckled (several "i" dots lost, e.g. "unions"/"elections" in the headings), but no digit was doubtful.
