Election records are public information and are subject to public inspection. The number of surname voter were estimated by conducting queries on the election voter lists using Census Spanish and Asian surname glossaries. The accuracy of the official voter lists and surname glossaries utilized to conduct the queries directly impact the voter estimates provided on the data tables. Any variance that is generated by an inexact voter or surname list is negligible. Questions about this presentation may be submitted to hectordeleon@hectordeleon.com.
