Hey, Media: Probability Analysis of 2002 Senate Election Fraud

I first posted this shortly after the 2002 elections. Many called it just another conspiracy theory. At that time, Diebold was not part of the DU lexicon, much less the media.

Well, here is some food for thought for those who have taken Probability and Statistics 101. Let's take another look at the analysis in light of all that we have learned since from Bev Harris, Johns Hopkins scientists, the Diebold emails, etc.

SUMMARY OF RESULTS
The odds that 4 out of 8 hotly contested Senate elections would fall outside the +/-3% margin of error (and all go for the Repubs) is:

1 out of 43,040.

To put it another way, you can expect this to occur due to mere chance in 1 out of every 43,040 senate elections - or once every 86,080 years.

Highly circumstantial evidence. Lawyers please note.

bravo...

because the deviations from the final polling were MUCH GREATER than the +/-3% MOE.

Zogby won't come out and say it, but he knows deep-down that the Repukes robbed the Dems blind.
