Third-party votes in 2012 are tallied only at the county level — that cycle's precinct source records two-party splits; — marks the Other column as not itemized at this grain, not zero.
These Census-place returns are modeled candidate-vote estimates on Census boundaries unless a row explicitly says certified. They are not automatically the official city or town return.
† 2004 sub-county results are estimated: the source reported that cycle at county or municipality level (COVID-era consolidated reporting), so block-level detail is interpolated from adjacent cycles and scaled to certified totals.
