This table only captures data that have been compiled by the organizations from all the polling places they observed. In general, only numerical values are used, except when proportions were clearly indicated. Narratives that describe but do not quantify aren't included.
1. Percentages refer to percentage of observers of that group with this finding
2. Blank box = no data available from this group
3. Not compiled. Data exist but have not been compiled
4. Observers' sample similar to overall published results: The OAS compiled all the manual counts taken by its observers and found that they matched the order and proportions of the overall results
5. Observers' manual counts match published results: This is a comparison of the manual count from a BV to the published results for that BV only. Sample of 141
