Elected official raise story had incorrect numbers; new version in works

The story I posted this morning on the bill to raise top elected officials' salaries had incorrect percentage figures, as it compared the new salaries to the old salaries in the bill - which actually are from several years ago, not from this year. That made the percentage raises appear much larger. A corrected story will be posted shortly.
