Geographic Distribution of Decertification Elections Held in Cases Closed, Fiscal Year 1999

p. 157. The crop cuts the table off mid-body: the last transcribed row, North Dakota, is the bottom line of the image, and the West North Central division (and all later divisions and the US total) continue on the remainder of the page/table, which is not shown. The stub heading carries a raised footnote marker 1 ("Division and State^1"), but no footnote text appears within the crop, so `footnotes` is empty. Heading reconstruction: the first group heading is printed as "Number of elections in which representation rights were won by unions" spanning four columns (Total, AFL-CIO unions, Other national unions, Other local unions); the second spanning heading "Valid votes cast for unions" spans the same four subdivisions further right. The last column's heading is set with end-of-line hyphens as "Eligible employ-ees in units choos-ing rep-resentati on" and has been joined to "Eligible employees in units choosing representation". In the left-hand group the AFL-CIO rule appears to be set as an en dash ("AFL–CIO") and in the right-hand group as a hyphen ("AFL-CIO"); both have been normalised to a plain hyphen. All printed division subtotals (New England, Middle Atlantic, East North Central) were checked against the sums of their member states in every one of the 14 numeric columns and agree exactly; no misprints detected. All cells were legible.

p. 158. Continuation page of Table 15C: the body starts mid-table (South Dakota is the tail of the West North Central division, whose earlier states are on the previous page) and is cut off at the bottom after Colorado, so the Mountain division's remaining states and its subtotal line are not on this crop. The stub heading carries a superscript footnote marker 1, but no footnote text is printed on this page, so `footnotes` is empty. The indented division lines (West North Central, South Atlantic, East South Central, West South Central) are subtotal rows, set off by double rules. In the first column group the heading is printed with an en dash ("AFL–CIO") and in the "Valid votes cast for unions" group with a hyphen ("AFL-CIO"); both are transcribed with a plain hyphen. All rows are internally consistent (component columns sum to their totals, and total valid votes cast equals union votes plus no-union votes), so no misprints are suspected. No cell was illegible.

p. 159. The crop is a continuation page ("—Continued" in the caption, omitted as instructed) and shows 15 printed columns. The "Mountain" row is a division subtotal whose remaining member States (Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado) are printed on the preceding page, so it does not equal the sum of the four State rows above it here (e.g. 15 total elections vs. 8 shown; 561 eligible vs. 259 shown). The "Pacific" subtotal and the "Total, all States and areas" row are internally consistent with the rows printed, and every row's union/no-union splits add to the printed totals. Row label "Perto Rico" is transcribed as printed; it appears to be a misprint for "Puerto Rico". "Virgin Island" is likewise printed in the singular. The last column heading is broken across lines as "Eligible employ-ees in units choos-ing rep-resentati on" with the final "on" dropping to its own line; it is joined here as "Eligible employees in units choosing representation". The first group's subheading is printed with an en dash ("AFL–CIO unions") while the "Valid votes cast for unions" group uses a hyphen ("AFL-CIO unions"); both are transcribed as printed. No values were illegible.
