Notes on how this document was read
- Pages 3 and 4 are one table split by columns; rows merged by county. The 'Percentage' and 'Contest Sum' rows are not units.
- Multi-line header cells were read by OCR with the lines in a different order; the labels were put back in printed order by eye.
- 11 figures could not be confirmed by two independent readings; where no reading was confirmed the cell is left blank rather than guessed.
Method: scan: pages rendered at 300 dpi, table cells read by Apple Vision (1x and 2x) and Tesseract; unsettled cells re-read alone by Vision, Tesseract and RapidOCR (tools/scan_generic.py, tools/generic_tables.reread_cells); a number is kept only when two engines agree
