45 of 59 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out. 3 cells break a sum: 'All representation elections', column 4: prints 59, rows 'Rerun required' to 'Regional Director–di' add to 155; 'All representation elections', column 8: prints 56, rows 'Rerun required' to 'Regional Director–di' add to 148; 'All representation elections', column 16: prints 3, rows 'Rerun required' to 'Regional Director–di' add to 7.
p. 117. Grid is 17 columns: the stub plus four groups of four columns (All R, RC, RM, RD elections), each group headed \"Elections conducted\".\n\nDash cells: throughout the body, cells that are not applicable are printed as a short double-hyphen dash rule (\"--\"); following the convention for dash rules these are transcribed as \"\". Every such cell in this table is a \"--\", none is truly blank, so no information is lost within the grid: in the \"Rerun required\"/\"Runoff required\" sub-rows only the \"Resulting in a rerun or runoff\" column carries a figure, and in the Consent, Board-directed and Expedited sub-rows some of those columns are dashed as well (e.g. the RM \"Resulting in a rerun or runoff\" column is dashed for the Consent sub-rows, and under Board-directed and Expedited only the All R rerun/runoff column shows a 0, the RC/RM/RD columns all being dashes).\n\nThe superscript 1 footnote marker appears only on the All R group's \"Resulting in certification\" heading; the corresponding RC, RM and RD headings carry no marker.\n\nRow labels \"Regional Director–directed\", \"Board–directed\" and \"Expedited–Sec. 8(b)(7)(C)\" are printed with a dash that is wider than a hyphen (transcribed as an en dash); a reader wanting a plain hyphen should normalize these.\n\nThe footnote line at the foot of the page is clipped by the bottom edge of the crop - only the upper halves of the letters are visible - so its wording is read from partial glyphs and is the least certain part of this transcription; the marker, \"The totals for representation elections resulting in certification\", \"elections held in UD cases\" and \"included in the totals in Table 11\" are legible, but individual words in between could differ.\n\nArithmetic check (not a correction, just corroboration): every section row cross-foots, RC + RM + RD = All R in all four columns and Total - Withdrawn - Rerun/runoff = Certification, and the Consent + Stipulated + Regional Director-directed + Board-directed + Expedited column sums equal the \"All representation elections\" line, so no printed total appears to be in error.
