The vote given is that cast for the first elector named on each ticket. The county level totals do not add up to the reported total statewide vote for any candidate, but the same numbers were reported at the county and state level by all three sources, except for one obvious typesetting error. An analysis of local level returns shows numerous errors in reporting and/or addition.
