344 of 344 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.
p. 149. The crop cuts the table off mid-way through panel B: the last fully printed row is "AFL-CIO v. National" under "B. Elections in RC cases"; the remaining B rows (and any footnotes, including the one keyed to the superscript 1 in the caption) continue beyond the bottom edge of this image and are not transcribed. The table is a single panel, 12 columns; "A. All representation elections" and "B. Elections in RC cases" are centered section lines spanning the data columns and are given as label-only rows. Em-dash rules ("——") marking nil entries are transcribed as empty cells; printed zeros are kept as 0 (e.g. "AFL-CIO v. Teamsters v. Local" and "AFL-CIO v. Local v. Local"). Row labels and headings print AFL-CIO with an en-dash-like glyph ("AFL–CIO"); transcribed with a plain hyphen. All subtotal, total and row-wise additions in the image check out exactly, which supports the column assignment.
p. 150. This is a continuation page ("—Continued"), so the body opens mid-section: the rows above "Total RC elections" belong to section B (elections in RC cases), whose heading and earlier rows are on the preceding page. No footnote text is printed on this crop (the superscript 1 marker appears only in the caption, which is excluded). Twelve columns: stub, "Total valid votes cast", then a five-column "elections won" block (Total / AFL-CIO unions / Other national unions / Other local unions, plus "Total votes for no union") and the matching five-column "elections lost" block. Section lines "C. Elections in RM cases" and "D. Elections in RD cases" are printed centered across the data area; they are transcribed as label-only rows. Cells printed as a dash rule (——) are transcribed as "". A printed 0 is kept as 0. In the RM-section row "Other local unions", the "Total votes for no union" cell under "elections won" carries a stray ink speck before the digits; the value reads 17 and is consistent with the row and column totals. The crop is cut off at the bottom: section D continues past the last transcribed row ("Other local unions"), so no "Total RD elections" line appears here. All row and column sums I checked reconcile as printed; no suspected misprints.
p. 151. This is a continuation page ("—Continued"), so the column headings are reprinted and are transcribed here. The table has 12 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 under "Votes for unions", plus "Total votes for no union"), and the same five under "Valid votes cast in elections lost". Several cells are printed as an em-dash rule rather than a figure; per instructions these are transcribed as empty: in "AFL-CIO v. Local" the won-"Other national unions" and lost-"Other national unions" cells; in "Local v. Local" the won-"AFL-CIO unions", won-"Other national unions", lost-"AFL-CIO unions" and lost-"Other national unions" cells. Note the contrast with the "2-union elections" subtotal row, where the same positions are printed as a literal 0. The scan renders the leading "1" of "1-union elections" and of "1,831" (Total RD elections, won-"Other local unions") with a serif form that resembles a capital I; both are read as the digit 1. "AFL-CIO" is printed with an en dash in the stub label "AFL–CIO v. Local" and in the column headings; transcribed with a plain hyphen. All row and column sums check out internally (e.g. 5,443+146+1,010=6,599; 6,599+3,071+3,459+7,448=20,577; 952+128=1,080; 20,577+1,080=21,657), so no misprints are suspected. The footnote marker 1 appears only on the caption ("Fiscal Year 1996^1"), which is excluded from this transcription.
