This is a historical article, not a daily tally sheet. If someone drops out or loses, do not erase them; rather, refer to them as having run and lost, dropped out, etc.
Until I formatted the tables and changed the results just now, the results given here disagreed with the ones on the Board of Elections page that was supposed cited as the reference for the results. In all cases, the numbers were underestimates. I'm wondering why. Were they preliminary results? Did they exclude military votes, absentee votes, or similar? Or were they just wrong?

I believe your guess is correct, that they were preliminary totals, probably excluding a few absentee or provisional ballots. Someone (maybe me) just put them up there before the final results were tallied, which takes place about 1 or 2 weeks after Election Day in North Carolina. Thanks for your work on the page!
