p. 113. Eight columns: stub plus seven value columns, with "Overruled" and "Sustained" each spanning a Number and a "Percent of total ruled upon" column at the second heading level. The caption carries a raised footnote marker 1 ("Fiscal Year 2008^1"), but no footnote text is printed within this crop; the footnote text may fall below the cropped region. The caption itself is omitted per instructions, so no marker appears in the grid. "By type of case:" and "By type of election:" are section lines with no values. All printed figures are internally consistent: both breakdowns sum to the "All representation elections" totals in every column (147, 57, 90, 83, 7), and the percents match the printed Number/Ruled-upon ratios. No illegible or doubtful cells.
