    Hi this is going to be filed under the feature or bug category.

    The JResult Sx-x.txt file breaks out the write-ins in a multiple "vote for"
    and (therefore) a multiple write-in race...even though JresultClient
    combines the totals.  So in the example listed below, JresultClient is
    showing 100 writein votes.

    70 69 "CITY OF BERKELEY RENT STABILIZATION COMMISSIONER" 10 5 243 1 0 968 0
    77
    	225 11 "PINKIE PAYNE" "" 0 10
    	224 12 "ROBERT J. EVANS" "" 0 20
    	226 13 "CHRIS KAVANAGH" "" 0 30
    	227 14 "HOWARD G. CHONG" "" 0 37
    	223 15 "SELMA  SPECTOR" "" 0 45
    	467 1047 "Write-in" "" 1 50
    	468 1048 "Write-in" "" 1 23
    	469 1049 "Write-in" "" 1 8
    	470 1050 "Write-in" "" 1 9
    	471 1051 "Write-in" "" 1 10

    The election summary report, of course also combines the multiple write-ins
    to show just one writein total.

    So was this difference deliberate or not?  Vegitable or mineral?
