  1. 1 See Glossary for definitions of terms.
  2. 2 Includes each unit in which a choice regarding collective-bargaining agent was made; for example, there may have been more than one election in a single case, or several cases may have been involved in one election unit.

344 of 344 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.

Reader’s notes

p. 140. 14 columns: stub, "Total elections", five columns under "Elections won by unions", the tall "Elections in which no representative chosen", "Total" and "In elections won" under "Employees eligible to vote", three columns under "In units won by", and the tall "In elections where no representative chosen". The source distinguishes two kinds of nil cell: a printed dash rule ("----") and a printed "0". Per the transcription convention the dash-rule cells are rendered as "" while printed zeros are kept as "0", so that distinction is lost in the grid for the dash cells. Dash cells occur in: AFL-CIO (other national, other local, units-other-national, units-other-local); National (AFL-CIO won, other local, units AFL-CIO, units other local); Local (AFL-CIO won, other national, units AFL-CIO, units other national); AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO (other national, other local, units other national, units other local); AFL-CIO v. National (other local, units other local); AFL-CIO v. Local (other national, units other national); National v. Local (AFL-CIO won, units AFL-CIO); Local v. Local (AFL-CIO won, other national, units AFL-CIO, units other national); AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO v. Local (other national, units other national). "A. All representation elections" is a centered section head spanning the table width; it is given as a label-only row. The crop ends just below the "Total representation elections" line, so section B of this table is not on this image. Footnote marker 1 appears on the caption (excluded from the transcript) and marker 2 on the "Total elections" heading, but no footnote text is printed within the crop, so `footnotes` is empty. All printed totals and subtotals are arithmetically consistent with their components; no suspected misprints. No illegible cells.

p. 141. This is a continuation page: the caption carries footnote marker 1 and the stub-side heading reads "Total elections^2", but no footnote texts are printed within the crop, so `footnotes` is empty. The crop also begins at section B, so section A of Table 13 is on the preceding page. Dash rules ("----", and a shorter "---" in the "AFL-CIO v. Local" row under "Elections won by unions / Other national unions") are transcribed as "". Printed zeros are kept as 0; the table distinguishes the two, with dash rules in the detail rows and 0 in the subtotal/total rows. Section-label rows "B. Elections in RC Cases" and "C. Elections in RM cases" are centered banner lines spanning the full table width; capitalisation of "Cases"/"cases" differs between them and is transcribed as printed. All row and column arithmetic I checked is internally consistent (component sums match every subtotal and total, and the percent-won figures match total won / total elections), so no misprints are suspected.

p. 142. 14 columns. Dash rules ("----") standing for "none" are transcribed as empty cells; printed zeros are kept as 0. Note the contrast within the 2-union block: "AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO" and "Local v. Local" use dash rules in the columns that do not apply, while "AFL-CIO v. Local" prints an explicit 0 in the "AFL-CIO unions" columns (both under "Elections won by unions" and under "In units won by") — transcribed as printed. "D. Elections in RD cases" is a full-width section banner with no values. The stub heading, "Total elections^2", the "Elections in which no representative chosen" column and the final "In elections where no representative chosen" column are tall single headings repeated down all three header levels; the five sub-headings under "Elections won by unions" and the "Total" / "In elections won" columns span the lower two levels and are likewise repeated. All printed totals cross-check (377+6+34=417; 417+6=423; 114+2+13=129; 6,841+136+940=7,917), so no misprints are suspected. This page continues Table 13 from the preceding page, but the column headings are reprinted in full on this crop.
