Trouble With Ticker Not Populating

Hello,

This is a follow up post to my recent post on "Trouble with Hidden Panel Passing Value". I am having an issue with the safety ticker that I had implemented in that question. For some reason, the only result being posted is <news ticker>. The code is below. For some reason this code was working but now is not. The point of the search is to produce one result that shows the last safety incident but only in the last 48 hours. The ticker itself uses a marquee to show the results. 

<form>
<search>
<query>
index=defmfg_safety work_center="S1**"
| sort 0 -_time
| dedup id
| head 3
| stats max(corrective_actions{}) as corrective_action by investigation_result
| eval corrective_action=if(corrective_action="30 day follow up" OR corrective_action="6 month follow up","PENDING",corrective_action)
| eval result=investigation_result +" -CORRECTIVE ACTION- "+ corrective_action
| eval ticker=result
| eval length=ceil(len(ticker)/2) . "ms"
</query>
<earliest>-48h@h</earliest>
<finalized>
<condition match="$job.resultCount$ == 0">
<unset token="ticker"></unset>
<unset token="ticker_result"></unset>
</condition>
<condition>
<set token="ticker">$result.ticker$</set>
<set token="ticker_result">$result.result$</set>
</condition>
</finalized>
</search>
<row depends="$ticker$">
<panel>
<html>
<style>
#marquee {
font-size: 30px;
color: white;
height: 45px;
white-space: nowrap;
line-height: 60px;
}
h2 {
font-size: 30px !important;
text-align: center;
padding: 5px !important;
color: red;

}
</style>
<h2>SAFETY ALERT</h2>
<marquee scrollamount="19" id="marquee">$ticker$</marquee>
</html>
</panel>
</row>
</form>
