Merged at MCD Group level.
Nevada's merge was virtually flawless, after making exceptions of certain counties (see AZ.MGE).
Two MCDGRPs (4 and 17) lack voting data values for 1984 only - no matches were available for that year alone for those MCDGRPs.
County 023. Matched Censprec "Currant Creek" with electoral precinct "Current"
County 031. Precincts are numbered sequentially. The computer match was fairly successful and handmatchers matched several more. Handmatchers also matched some absentee precincts, since the computer match seemed to match based solely on the precinct number, regardless of whether the name begins "WA PREC" or "Absentee." 1988 is the worst year, with almost 80 remaining unmatched precincts. 1990 has under 50, and 1986 and 1984 have under 40 unmatched.
For MATH88NV.XLS, county 031 still has more unmatched electoral precinct than other years. That year, the following precincts have no MCDGRP:
WASHOE PREC 001 - 043, 207, 307, 320, 400, 431, 504, 601, 603, 607 - 609, 618, 636, 645, 646, 711, 717, 751, and 912 -929.
Compare this with county 031 in MATH90NV.XLS, in which the next most precincts have no MCDGRP:
WASHOE PREC 001 - 004, 006, 008, 010 - 019, 023, 027 - 031, 036 - 041, 343, 645, 844, 862, 931, 934.
In general, though, 031 is a very large county, and a very high percentage of the precincts are now matched.
