Vote percentages reported by Secretary of State inconsistent[edit]

The vote percentages reported by the Arizona Secretary of State are inconsistent. Biden, for instance, is currently reported as having 261,020 votes, listed as 43.95%. But this is 49.98% of the total of the candidate counts presented, and 43.59% of the "Ballots Cast" count at the top.

I conjecture (based loosely on the message in the box below the Secretary of State's header) that the percentages listed include ballots for candidates who "formally withdrew" (rather than "publically suspended") as part of the total, despite those numbers themselves remaining unpublished, but there is some much smaller fraction of the "ballots cast" number that were actually blank or invalid, that were not included in the total for purposes of calculating candidate percentages.

It is my intent to update the page to match the percentages listed by the Secretary of State (that is, after all, what the source says), but include the sum of the listed percentages (87.92%) in the total row with an explanatory footnote, but I am not at all clear that this is necessarily the correct choice.
