Notes on how this document was read

Row numbers: early votes, total votes (= votes), percent.
Two labels misread by Vision on the scan ('DONALD 1. TRUMP/MICHAFL R. PENCE (1)', 'JFREMY') were corrected by eye; 'ABRAMLOFB/JENNIFER JAIRALA' is kept as read (the small print could not be confirmed) and is flagged in notes.
2 figures could not be confirmed by two independent readings; where no reading was confirmed the cell is left blank rather than guessed.

Method: page image read by Apple Vision (lines), Tesseract (words) and RapidOCR (lines); a number is kept when two engines read the same digits in the same place
