[2] The note column tallies the horizontal state totals which do not agree with the reported totals.  Interestingly the Grand Totals are correct. I have no explanation for the strange additions found in the newspaper report; perhaps government accounting opacity is nothing new - John Peter Thompson March 18 2013
