County 029- Kern
The total vote in the Statement of Vote does not match the record that the Secretary of State has i.e.the county file has a total vote of 84,938 while the SOS has a total vote of 84,940 (differences exist in the totals for the propositions, the 32nd assembly race as well as, the 22nd assembly race). There is a precinct that appears to be missing in an area between Los Angeles and Kern that could be due to an incorrect boundary. The precinct # is 0002223.
