Talk:1987 Murcian regional election

Results table

As the table is inconsistent now with the constituency pages, and it can't be consistent unless the total results of the three minor parties are changed, which we can't, I would propose to go for the results of the Yearbook, which in turn are the most official, complete and definitive ones. With these, the totals for the minor parties are consistent with the other sources if the numbers for the main parties are changed (the changes would be in Districts One and Three).

I've noticed that there were some inconsistencies for CDS, IU and PCAN totals, so I've changed their figures to the ones shown in the BORM, Sierra and Regional Assembly sources (which in turn are consistent with the constituency results, though I've spotted an error in CDS result for District 5 which I've subsequently fixed (source said 2,228 and not 2,288). However, as you say, the issue is with the smaller parties, of which we don't have consistent data at the constituency level. Impru20^talk 11:27, 7 December 2019 (UTC)

@Togiad: I finally found a reliable source for results: the electoral accounting control report from the Court of Auditors, page 414 of the pdf. It shows all final results for all parties (including minor ones), even at the constituency level, and one would argue this is a very trustworthy source considering the Court itself uses these results as a reference for proceeding to the electoral accounting control of the various parties. It actually shows that the correct figure for CDS in District 5 is 2,288 (and not 2,228 as reported in the Sierra source), but overall it matches results shown in the BORM (except for votes cast, which are slightly off in the BORM. These would have to be adjusted). Impru20^talk 12:08, 7 December 2019 (UTC)

That is a great source indeed. It's a nightmare to have different numbers in every source. Thank you! Togiad (talk) 12:13, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
