Hillary Clinton 226 208
Bernie Sanders 146 139
Donald Trump 140 125
Jeb Bush 6 4
Ted Cruz 306 288

There are many more questionable discrepancies.

I do have the CSV file ready (at 0ab0648a41d517286ce8be2e856b91f1d2a8fc31), but I don't feel comfortable pushing it, since it seems like every single total is off; I'm not sure the source can be used at all.

Yeah, seems like we'll need to go back to the county on this.

Ok, I obtained from the county different files that appear to line up with the SOS files: https://github.com/openelections/openelections-sources-tx/blob/master/2016/Fisher%20TX%202016%20PRIMARY%20DEM%20%26%20REP.PDF

I can take the file you've already produced and update that.
