Reader’s notes

p. 171. Twelve printed columns: stub, "Total valid votes cast", then five columns under "Valid votes cast in elections won" and five under "Valid votes cast in elections lost". Dash cells: many cells hold a short double-hyphen dash mark ("--") rather than a number. Per the rule that a dash is an empty cell, these are transcribed as "". The distinction with the printed zeros matters here, because both appear in this table: every "0" in the grid is a literal printed zero (notably the three "3 (or more)-union" detail rows, the "3 (or more)-union elections" subtotal, and the three zeros in the "3 (or more)-union elections" row under "Other national unions", and the elections-lost columns), while every "" in a data column was a printed "--". The crop is cut off at the bottom: panel B ("B. Elections in RC cases") ends with the "1-union elections" subtotal and the rest of panel B (2-union, 3-or-more-union and total rows) and any further panels continue beyond this image. The caption carries a superscript 1 footnote marker, but no footnote text is printed within the crop, so `footnotes` is empty. All internal arithmetic was spot-checked and is consistent as printed: the 1-union, 2-union, 3-or-more-union and total rows all equal the sum of their component rows in every column, in both panels, so no misprint is suspected. No cell was illegible.

p. 172. The crop is a continuation page: it opens in the middle of section B (elections in RC cases) — the section heading and the preceding 1-union-election rows are on the previous page — and it is cut off inside section D (elections in RD cases) after the "Other local unions" row. No footnotes are printed under the table on this page; the superscript 1 belongs to the caption, which is excluded. The table distinguishes a printed zero ("0") from a short dash ("--") meaning no entry. Per the convention for dash rules, every "--" cell has been transcribed as an empty string, so that distinction is not preserved in the grid. The affected cells are, by row and column: National v. Local (AFL-CIO unions / won, AFL-CIO unions / lost); AFL-CIO v. Local (Other national unions / won, Other national unions / lost); Local v. Local (AFL-CIO unions and Other national unions / won, AFL-CIO unions and Other national unions / lost); AFL-CIO v. National (Other local unions / won, Other local unions / lost); National v. National (AFL-CIO unions and Other local unions / won, AFL-CIO unions and Other local unions / lost); AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO (Other national and Other local unions / won and lost); the three 3-union rows (all four "Votes for unions" columns under elections lost); and in sections C and D the AFL-CIO, Other local unions, Other national unions, AFL-CIO v. National and AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO rows as printed. All subtotal and total rows that can be checked against their components add up exactly (2-union elections, 3 (or more)-union elections, Total RC elections, 1-union elections, 2-union elections and Total RM elections in section C), so no misprints are suspected. In section C, "Other national unions" shows "--" rather than a zero in the "Total votes for no union" column under elections won while its sibling rows show 0; this is as printed and is consistent with the 1-union-elections subtotal of 175.

p. 173. This image is the final (\"—Continued\") portion of Table 14; earlier rows of the table are on preceding pages, so the body begins mid-table with \"Other national unions\".\n\nDash cells: the table distinguishes a printed \"0\" from a short double-hyphen dash \"--\". Per the transcription rule that a dash rule is an empty cell, every \"--\" has been rendered as \"\". The cells that carry \"--\" in the image are: \"Other national unions\" — AFL-CIO unions (won), Other local unions (won), AFL-CIO unions (lost), Other local unions (lost); \"AFL-CIO v. Local\" — AFL-CIO unions (lost), Other national unions (lost), Other local unions (lost), Total votes for no union (lost); \"AFL-CIO v. National\" — AFL-CIO unions (won), Other national unions (won), Other local unions (won), Total votes for no union (won); \"AFL-CIO v. AFL-CIO\" — Other national unions (won), Other local unions (won), Other national unions (lost), Other local unions (lost). All other empty-looking cells in the grid are these dashes; there are no genuinely blank numeric cells.\n\nThe row label \"AFL-CIO v. National\" is printed with a period immediately after \"National\" that runs into the leader dots; it has been read as a leader artifact and dropped.\n\nThe footnote line at the bottom is clipped by the crop — only \"1 See Glossary of terms for definitions\" is legible, and any terminal punctuation or further footnote lines below it are cut off.\n\nArithmetic check (not used to alter any cell): all row and section sums are internally consistent as printed — e.g. 8,330 + 121 = 8,451 and 21,507 + 277 = 21,784.
