Suffolk 2020 Primary Discrepancies

[dwillis]

From @Tim-Healy:

There are discrepancies on the PDF for Suffolk County in New York that I noticed when I was double-checking my csv. There is a table at the top of each race and then another one at the bottom, and they don’t match for all candidates. I checked a few races row-by-row and the table at the bottom of each race matches the sum of all the votes in the election districts listed. My csv adds up to match those numbers. The numbers in the summary tables at the top of each race are off for four presidential candidates and four Congressional candidates, mostly by one vote, although sometimes by eight votes. Here are the discrepancies:

Candidate	Row Totals	PDF summary	Difference
Bernie Sanders	13933	13934	1
Deval Patrick	116	124	8
Joseph R. Biden	76803	76804	1
Tom Steyer	91	83	-8
Perry Gershon	17295	17296	1
Andrew R. Garbarino	11330	11335	5
Mike Li Petri	5409	5410	1
Patricia Maher	7007	7008	1

I forwarded this to the county commish for explanation. I don’t anticipate that it will be corrected or anything like that but at least an explanation perhaps. -Jorge  - Sent from my IPhone
