  1. 1 See Glossary of terms for definitions.
  2. 2 See Table 11E for rerun elections held after objections were sustained. In 2 elections in which objections were sustained, the cases were subsequently withdrawn. Therefore, in these cases no rerun elections were conducted.

28 of 28 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.

Reader’s notes

p. 143. Eight columns: stub plus seven value columns (Objections filed; Objections withdrawn; Objections ruled upon; Overruled Number; Overruled Percent of total ruled upon; Sustained Number; Sustained Percent of total ruled upon). The first three value headings are tall single headings spanning both heading levels, so they are repeated in both rows; the stub has no printed heading. Dash rules (em-dash rules standing for "not applicable / none") are transcribed as "" in: RM cases, Sustained Percent of total ruled upon; Consent elections, Expedited elections and Board-directed elections in both percent columns (Overruled Percent and Sustained Percent). The "Sustained" spanner carries a raised 2 footnote marker, recorded as Sustained^2. The caption's footnote marker 1 (on "1996") is not transcribed since the caption is excluded, but footnote 1 is still listed. The bottom rule of the table sits very close to the last row ("Board-directed elections"); its two percent cells appear to hold dash rules like the rows above, but the rules are partly clipped by the crop, so those cells are read as "" with slightly lower certainty than the rest. No arithmetic was checked or corrected; all values are as printed. Row-label leader dots were dropped.
