Notes on how this document was read
- Biden and Trump each appear on two ballot lines (DEM + WOR, REP + CON); both lines are kept as separate columns, and the UCSB figure is their sum.
- The sheet's last line 'Total Votes by Candidate' (the two-line sums) is not a county row and is skipped; 'Total Votes by Party' is the statewide row.
- 'Void' ballots are kept separately under extra['Void'] (not merged with Blank); UCSB's total excludes both Blank and Void.
