For Nevada on 2/11, the people_tested field has some invalid characters ("221343â€¬")

Yep, I get this too in some Python code of mine:

ValueError: could not convert string to float: '221343\u202c'

There is a UTF-8 encoded Unicode Character 'POP DIRECTIONAL FORMATTING' (U+202C) after the number, for some reason.
