I'm not sure if this is the right place for this thread, but I was browsing around and I noticed that the numbers that Dave has for Stone County, Arkansas on Atlas are incorrect. Atlas shows that Gary Johnson received zero votes and that Evan McMullin received 120 votes. According to the Arkansas Secretary of State, Johnson received 120 votes and McMullin received 41 votes. All the other votes per candidate are correct. Correcting this error should look like this:

STONE COUNTY, ARKANSAS (What is on Atlas now)
Trump 4,113 (73.75%)
Clinton 1,203 (21.57%)
McMullin 120 (2.15%)
Stein 62 (1.11%)
Hedges 35 (0.63%)
Kahn 23 (0.41%)
Castle 21 (0.38%)
Total Votes: 5,577

STONE COUNTY, ARKANSAS (What is should be, according to Secretary of State):
Trump 4,113 (73.21%)
Clinton 1,203 (21.41%)
Johnson 120 (2.14%)
Stein 62 (1.10%)
McMullin 41 (0.73%)
Hedges 35 (0.62%)
Kahn 23 (0.41%)
Castle 21 (0.37%)
Total Votes: 5,618

Ultimately, this will also change the statewide numbers as the numbers on Atlas for Johnson and McMullin do not match those listed on the Secretary of State website. Correcting this should have the statewide totals as:
Trump 684,872 (60.57%)
Clinton 380,494 (33.65%)
Johnson 29,949 (2.65%)
McMullin 13,176 (1.17%)
Stein 9,473 (0.84%)
Hedges 4,709 (0.42%)
Castle 4,613 (0.41%)
Kahn 3,390 (0.30%)
Total Votes: 1,130,676

So the only candidate who really gets a bump from this is Gary Johnson, up from 2.64 to 2.65 percent. I realize it's a minor error for a rural county, but just wanted to point that out.

Thank you for the clarification, MissouriMadam.

If I were one of the 100 Johnson voters, I would want Atlas to recognize my vote. :-)

The county's wiki page claims it's the only county not to give Johnson a single vote and cites Atlas.
