Title

Merging Errors

Known Errors and Omissions

Amador, Plumas, Santa Cruz, and Siskiyou counties are inaccurate due to no maps to make the registration to census consolidations (there is no information available for geocoding these counties, so maps are necessary). The odds of getting the maps for Plumas are good, for Siskiyou middling, and for Amador and Santa Cruz very poor. While there is SOV and reg data for Santa Cruz it is not based on mapping with the correct maps and it should not be used. There are minor known errors in the merging and consolidation process, relatively inconsequential, some of which may be corrected at a later date (probably when the SOV data is adjusted by voting propensities). Lists of known errors are given below. Differences between the Secretary of State database and IGS entries by SOV precincts by SOV, by county
