1948 US presidential election Democratic vote total for Whatcom County[edit]

Was the 1948 US presidential election Democratic vote total for Whatcom County 13,736 or 12,736? This question alters the winner because the Republican vote total for Whatcom County in 1948 was 12,850. I've added up the entire 1948 Washington state vote total for the Democratic candidate, Truman, using 13,736 for Whatcom County and the Washington state total for Truman came to what's listed as 476,165, yet is this accurate? 13,736 is listed on the 1948 United States presidential election in Washington (state) for Whatcom County (while Whatcom on the map is shaded Republican red, so a contradiction), yet it's listed as 12,736 on the Whatcom County, Washington page. The latter would mean a Washington state total of 475,165. It's difficult to find a source either way 79.66.96.149 (talk) 18:38, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
