Dallas, TX Election Fingerprint

Election Fingerprint for Dallas, TX polling places – All Vote Types:

Conclusions:

  • The results have a rotated and elongated orientation, and looks like a number of distinct “hot-spots” within the larger cluster.
  • Vote share near or over 100% is highly irregular and indicates a strong potential for fraud in any election. In the image above, there is what looks like a cluster centered around 50% turnout and spreading across multiple turnout bins of near 100% vote share for Biden.  Even in contentious elections, voter turnout over 90% is statistically unlikely, but not impossible.
  • Of the 868 precincts in this dataset, 87 are in the > 90% vote share for Biden band, 46 had > 93%, 15 had > 95%, and 2 had > 97%.
  • This fingerprint shows modest items of interest, but is inconclusive.

Atlanta, Georgia Election Fingerprints

Hat tip to Ed Solomon for collating the data on this one. There’s a bunch more coming as Ed’s done the heavy lifting on a bunch of localities, and I’m working through them.

Election Fingerprint for Atlanta, GA polling places – All Vote Types:

Conclusions:

  • The results do not form a normal Gaussian distribution, and are therefore, by definition, an “irregular” distribution. The main lobe of the ‘fingerprint’ also has a diffuse linear streak up and to the left.  According to the authors of the NAS paper, election results that show a strong streaking away from the main lobe may indicate ‘ballot stuffing,’ where ballots are added (or subtracted) at a specific rate. The election fingerprint is in the form of a main lobe and streak, although the streak is not as pronounced as the NAS paper’s Russia results.  
  • Vote share near or over 100% is highly irregular and indicates a strong potential for fraud in any election. In the image above, there is a distinct and shape line across multiple turnout bins of near 100% vote share for Biden.  Even in contentious elections, voter turnout over 90% is statistically unlikely, but not impossible.
  • Of the 1022 polling places in Atlanta, 252 are in the > 90% vote share for Biden band, 201 had > 93%, 84 had > 95%, and 8 had > 97%.
  • These findings indicate significant election irregularities that warrant additional scrutiny and investigation. It should be reiterated that the observed irregularities discussed above can serve as useful indicators and warnings of issues with an election, but do not constitute absolute proof of fraud on their own.

Well, isn’t that interesting …

USAID pulled two of their recent publications sometime after Nov 8 2020 on election integrity from their website. Specifically two publications that discuss election integrity forensics, including referencing the same National Academy of sciences paper that describes the Election Fingerprinting process that I’ve been using as a basis for my work. Luckily … there’s the wayback machine … and I made copies.

Revisiting the VA 2020 Election Fingerprints: “Unmixing” the Virtual Absentee Precinct Data

After getting a pointer to the higher fidelity per-ward WI data and redoing that analysis (here), which was not only able to produce the election fingerprints but also a statistical model for each county that could identify statistically outlying wards for further scrutiny, I wanted to go back to the VA data and see if I could update that analysis to do the same thing. There is a problem with the VA data, however, as VA uses “virtual” absentee and provisional ballot counting precincts and collects all absentee and provisional ballots at the county congressional district level. That means that there is no direct mapping for the absentee or provisional ballots back to the precincts that they came from in the data published by the Virginia Department of Elections. What I really need to have is all of the votes (in person, absentee, provisional) accounted for at the per precinct level.

In theory, if the reported totals from VA DoE are accurate and truly represent the sum of what occurred at the precinct level, such a mapping should be trivial to produce with standard optimization methods. That doesn’t mean that such a produced mapping would be necessarily accurate to specific real precinct vote tallies, just that mathematically there should be at least one, if not many, possible such mappings of vote shares at the precinct level that sum to the results presented by VA DoE and obey all of the constraints due to voter turnout, reported absentee registrations and returned ballots, etc. One of those possible mappings should also correctly represent what the real votes shares were for the election.

Side Note: I’d argue that the fact that VA has tallied and published their data in such a way that makes it near impossible to transparently review precinct level results is reason enough to audit the entire VA vote, and needs to be addressed by our legislature. Even if there was absolutely no flaws, errors, or fraud in the VA election … the vote should still be thoroughly and completely audited across the state, and reporting standards should be updated to make inspection of the per precinct results transparent without needing to perform advanced algorithms as described below.

Previously I tried adjusting the “registered voter” counts for each virtual district by subtracting off the number of actual votes counted in person in their constituent real precincts. That method is accurate and produces self-consistent data for the “virtual precincts” which are summed at the county congressional district level, but it does nothing for being able to plot accurate fingerprints at the real per-precinct level.

But then I had an idea (ding!) after my discussions with Ed Solomon as to how to “unwrap” and distribute the Absentee and Provisional ballots from the virtual precinct sums back to the component real precincts. We can use the fact that we have the actual county level sums, and the real precinct level turnout numbers as constraints to perform a non-linear model fit that estimates the numbers of votes for Biden and Trump for each precinct that should be summed into the virtual district results.

Fair Warning: If you’ve been following my other blog posts, this one is going to get way more technical. I’ll still try to make sure that I include ample descriptions and educational cross-links … but buckle up!

Input Data:

The input data to this is the same as the input data to all of the VA Election Fingerprint analysis. Direct from the VA Dept of Elections, we need the per precinct vote tallies and the voter registrations numbers. We’d like the registered voter results as close to the nov election as possible. Links to the most recently updated versions of these files from VA DoE are below. I’ve made one addition to the standard dataset, which is that I’ve used the Daily Absentee List (DAL) from the 2020 November General provided by VA DoE to estimate the number of accepted and returned absentee ballots per precinct.

https://www.elections.virginia.gov/candidatepac-info/client-services/index.html

Description and Method:

We know the per county per congressional district vote tallies and registration numbers [note that I routinely just refer to this as the “per county” data, but its really per county per congressional district], including all In-Person and Absentee ballots. We can compute the per County fingerprint in the standard manner according to the methods in the NAS paper that describes the Election Fingerprint method, as I did previously here and here. We take the data provided from the links above and sum them into per county results, and creating a 2D histogram of the (% Vote Share for Biden) vs (% Voter Turnout).

Per County Election Fingerprint based on the raw data provided by the VA DoE

I’ll mention quickly about how the Fingerprint above from the reported data appears to have significant irregularities and correlations that deviate from a 2D Gaussian. We see a central lobe with some very distinct intersecting curves overlaid. This distribution does not comport with the theory of a free and fair election. That is not the focus of this post however.

I (and others) would like the ability to accurately examine the data at the perprecinct level. We know the per precinct In-Person vote total from the VA DoE data, but not the per precinct Absentee votes for each candidate. Which means that the VA per precinct maps I produced before, while useful for looking at the In-Person, Absentee or Provisional votes independently, are not really suited for performing hypothesis testing for outlier precincts in relation to the election results as a whole. This is because the In-Person and Absentee votes share the same universe of possible voters (e.g. registered voters) with an unknown “mixing” coefficient (also known as a set of latent or hidden variables), and the Central Absentee Precinct (CAP) data from VA DoE encompass a number of summed component real precinct data. We also know that a large portion of the 2020 election was due to non-In-Person ballots, so this is a pretty gaping hole in our ability to understand what happened in VA.

We therefore need to estimate the number of additional (absentee or provisional) votes for Trump and Biden that should be attributed to each real precinct. Since we are missing important data from the VA DoE published data, we going to have to try and model this data using a non-linear optimization subject to a number of constraints. The desired end result of this is a self-consistent (but modeled) per precinct data set that accounts for all In-Person and Absentee ballots AND sums within each county congressional district to equal the per county fingerprints that we produced previously AND does not violate any of the expectations of a free and fair election (i.e. no over 100% turnout, no linear correlations in the histogram, etc). I will caveat again that this modeled result is only one possible solution to the “unmixing” optimization problem, albeit the most likely, given the constraints. If we can find such a mapping, then we have an existence proof. If the election was truly free and fair, and the data has not been manipulated, then there should exist at least one such mapping that can be discovered by the optimization process.

We’re going to perform this modeling under the following assumptions and constraints:

  • The total number of votes (In-Person, Absentee) allocated to a precinct should not exceed the number of registered voters for the precinct. Our optimization function will include a penalty when this is violated.
  • The total number of Absentee votes allocated to a precinct should not exceed the number of returned absentee ballots for the precinct (computed from the DAL). Our optimization function will include a penalty when this is violated.
  • The sum of the vote totals in all of the component precincts of a county congressional district should equal the data as provided by VA DoE (Votes Trump, Votes Biden, Total Absentee Votes, etc). Our optimization function will include a penalty when this is violated.

We’ll use the MATLAB optimization toolbox lsqnonlin function, which uses a Trust-Region-Reflective or Levenberg-Marquradt algorithm, and try and create this new model by finding the additive factors (x Abs Vote for Biden, y Abs Votes for Trump) for each precinct’s Biden and Trump votes that warp the In-Person dataset such that each precincts data incorporates the contributions from Absentee votes. We are also going to clamp each of the (x, y) factors to be greater than 0 and less than the total number of estimated absentee ballots per precinct. Note that if the only limit was this clamping we could still have 2x the number of allocated absentee votes since there are two variables, so this limit serves only as an extreme upper bound for numerical stability reasons and computation speed.

The objective function for the MATLAB lsqnonlin(...) algorithm is given below. I’ve also parameterized which penalties are to be included so that I can try different permutations.

    end
end

    % Penalize going over the total number of registered voters per precinct

    y = [y;c(:)];
    
    if nargout > 1 && sum(abs(c(:))) > 0
        v{end+1} = ['Violation of Precinct Registered Voters: ',num2str(sum(abs(c(:))))];
    end
end

Rsults:

I was unable to find a solution using ANY of the constraint permutations that satisfied mathematical consistency. While I was able to produce estimates of absentee vote share per precinct, none of the solutions generated fell completely within the reported turnout, reported absentee ballot splits, or other constraints as defined by the published and certified VA DoE results.

Based on the deviations otherwise observed and reported by VA DoE, an error threshold of 0.1% on reconstructed totals using the modeled absentee ballot distributions should be readily achievable, with exact matches the ideal and desired result . The closest solution I have achieved so far is off by a min of 0.35% (for reconstructed Trump vote total) and a max of 0.62% (for the reconstructed total number of votes cast).

I have issued on FB, Twitter and Telegram an open challenge and reward of $1000 to the first person that can provide such a solution. I do not believe that such a solution exists.

Original Per Precinct (In Person Only) Election Fingerprint
Original Per County Election Fingerprint
Modeled Per County Election Fingerprint using all constraints above
Modeled Per Precinct (In Person + Absentee) Election Fingerprint using all constraints above

A bugfix, but still no solution found … (update @ 2021-08-17 3:19pm)

There was a bug in the objective function posted above. The penalty score for going over the number of registered voters per county and the penalty score for going over the number of registered voters in the precinct should have had a negative sign in front of them. This has been fixed in the program listing above. While the LM optimization gets much closer with this bugfix, I have still yet to find a solution that satisfies all constraints and matches the results reported by VA DoE.

The “best bad” solution I could find … (update @ 2021-08-26 0:09 am)

After weeks of running different variations the “best bad” numerical solution I can find still busts the constraints derived from the reported VA data. The error function code and the resultant images have been updated. The following deviations are the mathematical minimum amount of deviations that I could achieve using the Levenberg-Marquardt optimization. There does not appear to be a mathematical solution to the absentee unwrapping problem in VA that does not violate the published tallies from VA DoE. There *should* be an entire universe of possibilities. The fact that there isn’t one is near irrefutable proof that the election vote tallies certified by VA are egregiously flawed.

Violation of County Vote Tally: 1401
Violation of County Absentee Votes: 1267
Violation of Precinct Approved and Returned Absentee Ballots: 15255
Violation of Precinct Registered Voters: 1808

The “worst bad” solution, which only tried to constrain the problem based on reported vote tallies, performed significantly worse.

Violation of County Vote Tally: 2382
Violation of County Absentee Votes: 970
Violation of Precinct Approved and Returned Absentee Ballots: 559492
Violation of Precinct Registered Voters: 75041

Mike Lindell’s Cyber Symposium – Day 1

Yes. I’ve been watching the Mike Lindell cyber symposium.

I was invited to attend (thank you again to Amanda Freeman Chase), but due to timing, my day job, and my understanding of the event format … I thought I could be more effective watching from home with the ability multi-task and to research things I heard real-time and continue my ongoing work in the background.

There’s a lot of fluff that was presented, which is fine. But Dr. Frank’s presentation was very very good, which was the first presentation I caught, and while I haven’t cross checked his methods (yet), they mostly corroborate the artifacts that I have seen as well using very different and rigorous techniques … at least at first blush going off of his presentation. (It’s now on my todo list to replicate his results.)

I am less convinced of the PCAP’s, and the theory that there was an organized (China backed) conspiracy to commit fraud as I’m still not sure as to some of the details as to data origin, methods, etc. I do find it very plausible. I just need more details. (I’m very familiar with PCAP’s, etc. but there are a lot more details that are required.)

However, until I get a better in depth look at the PCAP data and the code used to reconstruct Mike’s “corrected” maps, I think there is a simpler explanation: It is not required that fraud, manipulation or incompetence needs to have been organized to be effective. There does not need to be a nefarious man-behind-the-curtain. I think it more likely that we are looking at many mechanisms affecting our elections (plural), not a major singular effort. Thats my operating theory anyway.

Vote Discrepancy in VA 2020 Voting data

Note: As of Update 2021-08-13 (see below) the discrepancy is now 382176 Votes.

This needs to be explained. I hope this is just a mistake on my part or it can be attributed to a documented clerical or reporting error. I’ve gone over this a number of times now and triple checked my data sources and methods (all described or linked here). I’m only using the publicly available data from the VA Dept of Elections website and a doing a fairly basic consistency check between the machine readable data (csv) and what is presented on their site.

The VA Dept of Election summarizes the voting results for the 2020 Presidential election as follows. We note that even just taking screen shots from the VA DoE website we can notice that the vote totals for the same elections have some error in them. The first screen shot shows the total number of votes in the 2020 Presidential Election as 4,486,821 while the second shows the number of votes cast as 4,460,524. Now that is not a major difference in relation to the margin of victory or the number of votes cast, so it’s not something that bothers me. The two reported numbers are close enough that it is plausible that one includes overvotes/undervotes and the other doesn’t, or something similar. But it IS a noted difference, none the less. (issue # 1)

Screen Shot (as of 2021-08-10) of https://www.elections.virginia.gov/resultsreports/registrationturnout-statistics/ as of 2021-08-10
Screen Shot (as of 2021-08-10) https://historical.elections.virginia.gov/elections/search/year_from:2020/year_to:2020/office_id:1/stage:General

The VA DoE also publishes the 2020 General Election results (here) as a csv file. (I pulled a fresh copy as of 2021-08-10 to run this analysis, but its too large to upload to the site). One would expect the data in the csv and the data presented on the VA DoE website to match, or at least be close enough to chalk up any errors to something simple like over-votes/undervotes, etc.. They don’t. Not only do they not match, but they don’t match in a very peculiar way. Let’s walk through the process of grabbing the data from the csv and tabulating metrics above in a very simple MATLAB script, shall we?


% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Import the November General vote totals and collate ...
NovemberGeneral = importVAVotefile("SourceData/2020 November General.csv", [2, Inf]);
NovemberGeneral = NovemberGeneral(NovemberGeneral.OfficeTitle == 'President and Vice President',:);
LocalityName = NovemberGeneral.LocalityName;
DistrictName = NovemberGeneral.DistrictName;
PrecinctName = NovemberGeneral.PrecinctName;

uid = join(cat(2,string(LocalityName),string(DistrictName),string(PrecinctName)),' : ');

[uuids, ui,ua] = unique(uid);
[ulns, uci,uca] = unique(NovemberGeneral.LastName);
votes = accumarray([ua,uca],NovemberGeneral.TOTAL_VOTES);
votes(isnan(votes)) = 0;
votes(:,end+1) = sum(votes,2);

isAbsentee = contains(string(uuids),"Central Absentee Precinct");
isProvisional = contains(string(uuids),"Provisional");

% Compute the sum of all ballots
TotalVotes = sum(votes(:,end))

% Compute the sum of the in person ballots
InPersonVotes = sum(votes(~isAbsentee & ~isProvisional,end))

% Compute the sum of the provisional or absentee ballots
Absentee = sum(votes(isAbsentee | isProvisional,end))
>> TotalVotes = 4462600
>> InPersonVotes = 1630833
>> Absentee = 2831767

Wait a minute?? … the data from the first link show the Absentee vote being 2,687,304. Yet the “2020 November General.csv” file shows 2,831,767 absentee votes. Thats a difference of somewhere around 144,463 votes! Even more interesting is the fact that the total number of votes is still consistent with the published summary screenshots above. Thats a significant enough discrepancy that I get my worry beads out. Now, granted, this could … in some convoluted Rube Goldberg esque manner … be just be a clerical error, or maybe I’m just missing something totally obvious about the data. But no matter the reason, this NEEDS to be explained.

Update 2021-08-10 6:57pm

I’ve received a update that further corroborates the discontinuity in these numbers. In response to a FOIA request, the VA Dept of Elections supplied a summary file of the counts of all requested and returned absentee ballots per county.

This data file comes from ashley.coles@elections.virginia.gov. It contains only two data columns, the Total Requested and the Total Returned. Summing the Total Returned column produces a result of 2,829,037. which is only off from my result by 2730 (<< 1%). So we have yet another official source of VA election data that shows a discrepancy from the official results that were certified by VA. No fancy MATLAB scripts required to process, just simple sum of the table columns.

Update 2021-08-13 3:00 PM

Looking closer at the official certified results from the VA DoE (first graphic and link above), they report that in 2020 the Total Registered = 5,975,696, the Total Voting = 4,486,821, and the % Turnout = 81.48%. They define the “Turnout” metric in the header as “% Voting of Total Registered”. So according to VA DoE … Total Voting / Total Registered * 100 = 4486821 / 5975696 * 100 = 81.48. Simple, right?

Except its wrong. Way wrong. Go ahead … grab a calculator. Try it for yourself.

4486821 / 5975696 * 100 = 75.0845 is what you’ll come up with. That’s a Difference of 6.40% from the reported turnout. .064 * Total Registered = .064 * 5,975,696 = 382,176 (rounded) Unaccounted for votes.

But Jon … you say … surely you are just misinterpreting their metric! They wouldn’t have published the certified results with that glaring of an error. There has to be some other variable that’s counted in the turnout numbers that they just forgot to describe in the header line of the report.

If that were the case, we would expect the other election totals in the subsequent rows to show similar errors then, right? Yeah … not so much. Every other year in this same report has a difference of less than 0.1%.

Remember these are the numbers that VA certified to congress. Even if this is just a clerical error, we need to know how and why it happened and make sure it doesn’t happen again. We need a full audit of the VA 2020 Election.

Summary:

In summary, I can rectify the “2020 November General” and the “Daily_Registrant_Count_By_Locality” data files to give the following results compared to the HTML web report. The additional cross check of the response from FOIA request, matches my number to within a few thousand. All of this data is provided by VA DoE. All of it is supposed to be authoritative and definitive. And none of it makes any sense.

New WI 2020 Election Fingerprints, rev 2.0

Shortly after posting some updated WI data analysis (here) I got pointed to an even better set of data to use for generating the fingerprints. This updated dataset uses the registration numbers as of Nov 3 and the per ward vote tallies provided on the https://elections.wi.gov/ site.

I also made some code modifications in order to compute an idealized model of what the Fingerprint “should” look like, similar to what was done in the original National Academy of Sciences paper. The ideal model is based on a 2D Gaussian Mixture Model fit to the locations of top histogram bins that are >= 70% of the max histogram value. The model uses a shared covariance matrix for all of the components based off of the sample covariance of the data. In the statewide plot below the Election Fingerprint is in the top right, with the ideal model in the bottom left. On the bottom right and top left are the sums of the Election Fingerprint image across the different dimensions.

Statewide Election Fingerprint, per Ward group

We see what looks like two (or even three) superimposed lobes around the 90% turnout and 40% per Biden bin, which is consistent with my earlier low-res version, and we have a lot more detail as to the upward kurtotic smear off the main distribution. There also are a few Ward Groupings that have exceptionally high % for Biden (rarely, if ever, does a candidate receive near 100% vote share), and there are Ward Groupings that are near/over the 100% turnout marker, with the addition that some of those are ALSO either 100% Biden or 0% Biden (all big red flags)!

As discussed in the National Academy of Sciences paper that all of this work is based on, an idealized Election Fingerprint should look like a 2D Gaussian (or a multi-variate normal distribution). Or maybe, in an extremely divided populace, 2 overlapping Gaussian distributions. Deviations from this are, by definition, irregular and an indication that there might be an issue with the election. Distinct linear or non-linear features sloping away from the central lobes(s) could indicate voter manipulation or “ballot stuffing”; isolated regions at high turnout +/or very high vote percentage for one candidate could be an indication of extreme manipulation or vote substitution. Now, its true that no real Election Fingerprint will look perfectly Gaussian due to the realities of how elections operate, data errors, etc … but they should at least be close!

Testing specific Wards to check for outliers

Just like before, I went through each individual counties data to make individual county specific Fingerprints. I also used the model to find a set of “interesting” wards by testing how well the ward fit against the probability density function (pdf) of the model. Wards are deemed outliers from the model if the ward group entry had (over 25 votes total) AND (it had over 97% turnout OR it had over 97% votes for Biden OR it had an evaluated pdf of < 1E-9 against the GMM Model). The complete list of outliers according to this model is below, along with the sums for the outlier wards.

New WI 2020 Election Fingerprints

Previously (see here, and here) I built a set of Election Fingerprints including WI that was based on the County data that I extracted from the NYT/Edison research election tracker, which was the best data that I had available at the time. While the results did have some interesting features, there wasn’t really enough data points to make any sort of inference one way or the other. Well … this last weekend (07/30/21) I received a dataset that had all of the vote counts and registered voters by Ward Grouping in the state, which is a much higher fidelity dataset than I had been working with.

Update 8/4/21: Not 24 hours after posting, my data source for the WI data has discovered some more accurate voter registration numbers for me to use which more accurately account for same day registrations. (The one I used was dated as of 12/1/20) I will be updating my analysis ASAP. The updated plots and analysis is posted here, but I’ll keep this post up for historic purposes.

The original image I created is replicated below for reference. As you can see, its a very blocky histogram created from the County level data points. There is a main lobe at about 90% turnout and 40% for Biden with some kurtotic streaking up and to the left with another grouping of Counties. While those features are indeed irregular and interesting, due to the coarse nature of the original per County data, it was plausible that the shape is just due to sampling issues so I didn’t flag WI as one of my issue states.

The data set I received this weekend however, is a drastic improvement in fidelity. It’s not without its data quality issues, as there was a good bit of data normalization needing to be done to get the vote tally data per ward group and the voter registration data per ward to marry up. Besides some different spellings, abbreviations and shorthand that needed to be rectified between the dataset, the registration data had any municipality that would straddle county lines labeled similar to the following format: “MULTIPLE COUNTIES, CITY OF NOWHERESVILLE, WARD 5A” along with a registered voter count. The vote count tally data had grouped multiple wards into different groupings such as “SOMEWHERE COUNTY, CITY OF NOWHERESVILLE, WARDS 1-3,4,5A,6C,13-15” along with a set of vote totals for Biden, Trump and TotalVotesCast. So I had to go through the files by hand and group each files corresponding data with the smallest size groupings as possible. There also seems to be a few (not many, though) Wards that are not accounted for by the Vote count result as well and others that are missing from the registration data. That being said, we can see much more detail in the generated statewide fingerprint (below), which also matches the “low-res” version that I had done previously. (Hooray … my results are consistent!)

We see what looks like two (or even three) superimposed lobes around the 90% turnout and 40% per Biden bin, which is consistent with my earlier low-res version, and we have a lot more detail as to the upward kurtotic smear off the main distribution. There also are a few Ward Groupings that have exceptionally high % for Biden (rarely, if ever, does a candidate receive near 100% vote share), and there are Ward Groupings that are near/over the 100% turnout marker, with the addition that some of those are ALSO either 100% Biden or 0% Biden (all big red flags)!

As discussed in the National Academy of Sciences paper that all of this work is based on, an idealized Election Fingerprint should look like a 2D Gaussian (or a multi-variate normal distribution). Or maybe, in an extremely divided populace, 2 overlapping Gaussian distributions. Deviations from this are, by definition, irregular and an indication that there might be an issue with the election. Distinct linear or non-linear features sloping away from the central lobes(s) could indicate voter manipulation or “ballot stuffing”; isolated regions at high turnout +/or very high vote percentage for one candidate could be an indication of extreme manipulation or vote substitution. Now, its true that no real Election Fingerprint will look perfectly Gaussian due to the realities of how elections operate, data errors, etc … but they should at least be close!

So that moves the needle for me as to considering WI as a problematic state based off Election Fingerprint generation. I would definitely say now that I think there are concrete signs of election irregularity in WI that deserve to be rigorously investigated. I can’t tell you if the shape of the above plot is due to incompetence, or outright fraud … but there is definitely something wrong!

Per County Data

Since I now have all of this rich data to play with … It’d be a shame to only do things statewide! I also produced fingerprints for every single county. One note here is that there is one plot that is the group of “MULTIPLE COUNTIES” that I had mentioned above due to the way the source registration data was organized and labelled. Some of the counties, look actually pretty good with nice, localized, near-gaussian distributions. Some are just an absolute mess!

My list of “interesting” counties:

ASHLAND, BAYFIELD, BROWN, CALUMET, CHIPPEWA, CLARK, DANE, DOGE, DOOR, DOUGLAS, DUNN, EAU CLAIRE, FOREST, GRANT, IOWA, JACKSON, JUNEAU, KENOSHA, KEWAUNEE, LACROSSE, LAFAYETTE, MARATHON, MILWAULKEE, MONROE, ONEIDA, OUTGAMIE, OZAUKEE, PIERCE, PORTAGE, RACINE, RICHLAND, ROCK, RUSK, SAULK, SHAWANO, SHEBOYGEN, St. CROIX, TAYLOR, VILAS, WASHINGTON, WAUKESHA, WAUPACA, WINNEBAGO (43/72 WI Counties)

Of that list, I’d label the following as “VERY interesting”:

BAYFIELD, BROWN, CALUMET, DANE, DOOR, EAU CLAIRE, KENOSHA, LACROSSE, LAFAYETTE, MARATHON, MILWAULKEE, OUTGAMIE, OZAUKEE, PORTAGE, RACINE, ROCK, SAULK, SHAWANO, SHEBOYGEN, St. CROIX, VILAS, WAUKESHA, WINNEBAGO (23/72 WI Counties)

The Election Fingerprints of all of the counties (plus the “MULTIPLE COUNTIES” super-group) are listed below:
