GENERAL ELECTION November 2, 2004 General Election Results |
. The State Review Board Has Completed Its Review, and the Results are Now Official
The Statements of Votes Cast contain the individual district results from the 2004 General Election. It also provides a statewide summary showing the certified results and recount summaries for the US Senate and House District 5 races. Here is guidance to help in reading the individual district results:
Reg Voters =
|
Number of voters registered |
Cards Cast =
|
Total number of ballots cast (Whether counted or not) |
% Turnout =
|
Number of voters who cast a ballot divided by number of voters registered, expressed as a percentage |
| Number of ballots counted for each individual race | |
Total Votes =
|
Number of votes counted for each individual race (If this number is lower than “times counted” it is because some voters chose not to vote in that race) |
In House Districts 16 – 32 some precincts show more than 100 percent voter turnout. This is because the State of Alaska conducted a special election for the Municipality of Anchorage concurrently with the 2004 General Election. In these districts, there were two ballots, a State ballot and a Municipality ballot. The % Turnout is based on the Cards Cast number. Because each voter could have cast two ballots the turnout in these districts is inflated. In these districts look at the Times Counted number for the US Presidential race to determine the actual number of State ballots cast in each precinct. This number, divided by the number of registered voters will yield the turnout for the precinct:
In each district there is a row entitled R# Early Voting. This presents the early voting results for each of the state’s four regions. The results are shown for entire regions, not for individual districts. Because the early voting results are for the entire region, the same regional numbers are repeated in each district. For example, Region 1 contains House Districts 1-5 and 33-36. The same early voting results are presented on the R1 Early Voting row in all districts in Region 1. Although the results are listed multiple times, they were not counted more than once. These results were reported only once in the statewide summary, which accurately presents the results for each race.
