You have the Absentee and Early report precinct both in the Absentee vote center. Ditto Early vote center. That is, um, a weird thing to do. Delete Early report precinct out of Absentee vote center, and visa-versa, and you should be fine.

That said, there does seem to be a double accounting here for this oddball case. There is definitely only one early voting precinct reporting.

Here is the database. No matter if I create seperate Vote Center Categories, or have both counter groups under the same Vote Center Category, I still come up with the same result on the report.

Hold on, I think I misread this. Jeff, can you email me the database so we can play.

This is actually correct, though it can be confusing. The Absentee and Early counter groups are in the same precinct in this example. So, we don't sum them, they only count once. The total number of precinct is 12, not 14. You will get the same answer whether the counter group totals box is check or not.

I have tried a couple of different ways to set up 2 Cumulative Counter Groups. But no matter how I do it, when I print out a Election Summary Report with the Counter Group Totals Only check box unchecked, I get the Number of Precincts to be 2 for each Cumulative Counter Group, whereI believe it should be 1. The Total is correct, but makes it very confusing, if you are adding from left to right. Please see below.

Maybe I am not doing something correct????
