Reader’s notes

p. 136. 12 columns: stub, "Total elections", then Number/Percent pairs under each of the five spanner headings. The headings "Method and stage of disposition" and "Total elections" are tall single cells spanning both heading levels, so they are repeated in both. Footnotes: the table carries two superscript markers in the headings ("Total objections" = 1, "Total challenges" = 2), but the footnote text itself falls below the bottom rule and is cut off by the crop — only the very top of the first footnote's marker is visible at the lower-left edge. `footnotes` is therefore empty rather than reconstructed. Doubtful cell: "Expedited elections", Total challenges / Percent — the scan shows what looks like a stray period before the value (".0.0"). Reading it as the printed value 0.0 with an ink speck / leader-dot artifact in front; every other cell in that row is 0 or 0.0, and the column is consistent with 0. Arithmetic (not altered, reported only as a check): all rows are internally consistent — Total objections = Objections only + Objections and challenges, Total challenges = Challenges only + Objections and challenges; both the case-type block (3,264 + 45 + 434) and the election-type block (17 + 3,136 + 0 + 583 + 7) sum to the printed 3,743. No suspected misprints in the numbers. The page number at the top (152, partly clipped) and the caption line were excluded as instructed.
