@warwickmm That's correct: to protect voter privacy in precincts where there are a very small number of votes, they redact the number and replace it with an asterisk.

warwickmm commented 3 years ago

Thanks @dwillis, that makes sense. Should we replace * with an empty entry or leave them as *? Is there a consistent style that we would like to adhere to?

warwickmm commented 3 years ago

I think I may have naively replaced some * or - votes with empty entries in other repos. Let me know if you would like me to revert those.

dwillis commented 3 years ago

I think I'd rather retain the asterisks where they existed. Dashes I think are fine to eliminate.

warwickmm commented 3 years ago

Ok, no problem. I'll revisit some of the previous pull requests and submit new ones to revert some changes if necessary.

I haven't tested this, but the presence of * might make some csv readers treat the vote column as strings, making it a little more difficult for users to analyze the results.
